How much total funding has Indivisible raised annually?
Executive summary
Indivisible is not a single budget line but a cluster of organizations and political committees whose fundraising totals differ depending on which entity or cycle is counted; the clearest contemporaneous public numbers show roughly $11.4 million raised across two main 2023 nonprofit entities and nearly $10 million raised by the affiliated PAC in the 2023–24 election cycle (separate from nonprofit revenue) [1] [2]. Discrepancies in reporting — transfers between entities, differences between nonprofit revenue and PAC receipts, and varying definitions of “Indivisible” — mean any single annual “total” requires careful qualification [1] [3] [4].
1. What “Indivisible” means for fundraising totals
The name “Indivisible” refers to multiple bodies: at minimum Indivisible Project (a 501(c)), Indivisible Civics (another nonprofit arm), and political committees such as Indivisible Action; public reporting treats these separately, so combining them into one headline number requires aggregating across distinct filings and accounts that are reported to different agencies [1] [2] [5].
2. The clearest nonprofit snapshot: 2023 audited figures
Indivisible’s own 2023 annual report states that Indivisible Civics raised $4.9 million in 2023 and Indivisible Project raised approximately $6.5 million in 2023, producing about $11.4 million in fundraising across those two nonprofit entities in that year as reported by the organization [1]. The annual report also warns that these financials cover multiple Indivisible entities and include transfers between entities under a shared services agreement, which inflates consolidated revenue relative to strict “contributions” [1].
3. The PAC side: political receipts and outside spending
Separately, Indivisible Action, the organization’s PAC, reported raising $9,922,930 in the 2023–2024 election cycle according to OpenSecrets’ PAC profile, a figure drawn from FEC filings and cycle reporting rather than the nonprofit annual report [2]. OpenSecrets’ profile for the Indivisible Project’s contributions in the 2024 cycle shows $2,501,804 in contributions and $177,473 in outside spending reported for that cycle, underscoring that PAC and nonprofit flows are different buckets in federal reporting [6] [3].
4. Third‑party summaries and donor detail that complicate totals
Investigative aggregators add further context: InfluenceWatch summarizes grant flows to Indivisible and reports multiple large institutional donors to help explain multi‑million dollar revenue lines noted on tax returns, and cites a reported $12.5 million in total revenue on 2023 tax filings in one analysis [7]. ProPublica and Ballotpedia offer tax‑filing and year‑by‑year revenue breakdowns for nonprofits that can be used to reconstruct annual totals, but those sources require digging into Form 990s and cross‑checking for transfers and affiliated entities [8] [4].
5. Why year‑to‑year totals differ and where caution is needed
Different public data sets measure different things: nonprofit Form 990 revenue, PAC receipts/expenditures reported to the FEC, and contribution summaries compiled by watchdogs each capture overlapping but not identical flows; Indivisible’s own disclosure notes intra‑entity transfers and shared services that can make consolidated revenue appear larger than net new contributions, and OpenSecrets warns that totals include affiliates and can exclude certain 527s or transfers [1] [3] [5].
6. Bottom line — the best defensible annual figures and a plain answer
The most direct, organization‑published numbers for 2023 show roughly $11.4 million raised across Indivisible Civics ($4.9M) and Indivisible Project (~$6.5M) [1]; separately, the Indivisible Action PAC raised about $9.92 million in the 2023–24 election cycle [2]. Combining nonprofit revenue and PAC receipts into a single “Indivisible” figure is possible but must be done transparently because the PAC and nonprofit funds are reported on different filings and serve legally distinct purposes [1] [2] [3].
7. Unanswered questions and how to verify totals
Reconstructing a fully consolidated annual total for all Indivisible‑branded entities would require aggregating Form 990s for each nonprofit affiliate, FEC reports for each committee, and careful deduction of intra‑organization transfers; the publicly cited sources here — Indivisible’s 2023 financial statement, OpenSecrets PAC and organization pages, and watchdog summaries — provide the primary figures but also flag the limits of aggregation without the original filings [1] [2] [6] [7].
