The Fund for Public Interest Research is a national nonprofit organization working to increase the visibility, membership and political power of the nation’s leading environmental and progressive groups. The Fund for Public Interest Research is best known for its canvass programs. Over the years The Fund has developed the nation's largest and most effective network for door-to-door and street canvassing—signing up members in high traffic, public places.

The Fund for Public Interest Research works with Environment Colorado in Denver and other cities throughout Colorado.
