Our Story
A4D began in 2017 as a small group committed to strengthening democracy at every level. Since then, we've grown into a network of organizers, donors, and everyday people who believe that civic action still matters—and that democracy is worth fighting for.
Meet the Founders
Susie Roos – Partner at VC firm, recovering attorney, active political junkie/fundraiser and determined to save our democracy by supporting candidates that uphold our values, and backing initiatives that form the foundation of our democracy.

​
Michelle Pettigrew-Kaplan – Brings 25 years of experience raising funds and producing large and small-scale events for businesses, educational institutions, scientific initiatives, and political campaigns to A4D. Her original investigative work has sparked stories in The New York Times, The New Yorker, The Washington Post, and The Los Angeles Times.A4D is an organization of volunteers and does not raise money for itself.
​We support both 501(c)(3) and (c)(4) organizations, and political campaigns. We’re transparent about where funds go and which donations are tax-deductible.
