Alaska Public Interest Research Group Inc. (c3)

Organization Description
Alaska Public Interest Research Group (AKPIRG) is a nonprofit founded in 1974 that is committed to connecting Alaskans to reliable information about public interest issues. Unlike most PIRGs, AKPIRG has no ties to university or student PIRG organizations, or to the national PIRG system. Designed to represent the interests of consumers, AKPIRG provides a vehicle for promoting the concerns of under-represented Alaskans into the mainstream of public policy making. We have five intersecting and often-related issue areas that we work on: energy, broadband, economic justice, language access, and good government.

Chispa AZ (c4)

Organization Description
Chispa Arizona is a grassroots organization dedicated to building the political power of Latine and frontline communities to fight for climate justice, environmental equity, and a thriving democracy. As a program of the League of Conservation Voters, we work at the intersection of environmental and social justice, advocating for clean air and water, protecting public lands, and advancing equitable energy policies that prioritize people over polluters. Through community organizing, leadership development, and civic engagement, we empower historically excluded communities to take action and hold decision-makers accountable.

In 2025, Chispa Arizona is prepared to meet the challenges of an evolving environmental and political landscape with a strategic and proactive plan. By deepening our grassroots organizing, expanding civic engagement, and advancing policy advocacy, we will continue building power for communities most impacted by climate and environmental injustice. Through comprehensive membership growth, leadership development, and campaign-driven organizing, we will work to ensure our communities have the tools, resources, and influence necessary to create lasting change.
Mission
Chispa Arizona is organizing within our Latinx communities to grow political power and civic engagement for environmental justice in Arizona, as a program of the League of Conservation Voters. We build the capacity of Latinx families to influence policymakers and pressure polluters to protect communities’ rights to clean air and water, healthy neighborhoods, and a safe climate for generations to come. We are growing the infrastructure and leadership necessary for Latinx families to hold polluters and decision-makers accountable, demanding environmental justice and equity for our communities.
