The Fund for Constitutional Government (FCG) is an American, non-profit organization dedicated to promoting democracy, government, and corporate transparency, fair economies, and efforts against corruption and climate change.[1] The fund is based at Capitol Hill and works to bring to light instances of corruption with large public impact.[2]

Founded in 1974, its stated mission is to "awaken the American public's concern about the Constitution and to stimulate interest in monitoring how government conducts its business."[3] The organization was founded by Stewart Rawlings Mott, an heir to the General Motors fortune.[4] It is a fiscal sponsor of Transparency International in the United States.[5]
