About Us
Welcome to Eleanor's Legacy!
Eleanor's Legacy is building a new generation of pro-choice Democratic women candidates, informed voters, and political activists in New York State. Our work is inspired by Eleanor Roosevelt’s example of leadership and her commitment to promoting women in politics and government.
With the help from supporters like you we are making progress and electing more women! Eleanor's Legacy has awarded nearly $1 million in campaign grants to almost 1,000 pro-choice Democratic women candidates since 2001. And 477 of those candidates won. In 2011, Eleanor's Legacy supported 106 pro-choice Democratic women across the state. 54 of the 106 candidates won.
