The Healthy Democracy Coalition is an American national non-profit organization dedicated to cross-partisan philanthropic learning and collaboration.[1][2] Founded by Jonah Wittkamper, the Coalition manages a network of philanthropists, convenes events, and develops strategies for collective action. Catalyzed years earlier,[3] the group formally launched in 2017 with support from the Hewlett Foundation[4] and the Fetzer Institute.[5][6] The organization has local chapters in dozens of cities across the country. The group was developed over years of coalition building through events at the White House[7][8] and the United States Congress[9][10][11] that were facilitated by NEXUS in collaboration with a Council of Advisors from across the political spectrum, representing several of the most influential partisan donor networks in the country.[12][13][14][15][16] In 2020, the organization redirected its membership to join forces with the Leadership Now Project to invest in the integrity of US democracy.
