NYC Votes Contribute (Contribute), a project of the NYC Campaign Finance Board (CFB), is a first-of-its-kind platform--a fundraising tool for candidates built as a public good. The CFB created Contribute with the idea of using technology to extend the mission of the small-dollar matching funds program.

Contribute simplifies the process of collecting small contributions online — making powerful fundraising tools freely available to all candidates. By building a tool that helps connect candidates with their supporters, we hope to make it easier for candidates of all backgrounds to qualify for matching funds and build a viable campaign with the support of small-dollar contributors from their friends and neighbors.
