I am happy to report that we have raised $49,750 so far for IFI’s Year-End Matching Grant Challenge of $105,000. However, we have only until midnight on December 31st to raise the remaining $55,250.

These last few days of the year are extremely important for Illinois Family Institute, as our 2021 budget depends on receiving a significant portion of your support during the month of December.

As the clock winds down on this year, you have one last chance to make charitable donations that can be deducted from your 2020 taxes–and you can triple the impact of your gift if you send it before Friday.

A group of generous IFI benefactors are working together to TRIPLE every gift received this month, up to $105,000. So your gift of $50, $100, $500 or more would help the IFI’s mission by $150, $300, $1500 or more!

Equipping the saints, exposing lies, boldly telling truth, upholding life, defending religious liberty, contending for parental rights, advocating for educational choice, and fighting for common decency in our communities: That’s what IFI does. It’s what you–our supporters–appreciate about our role in the public square.

This year has been very challenging for us financially as it has been for many families and non-profit organizations. Donations have been down all year, and to make matters worse, we were forced to cancel our annual banquet due to the COVID-19 lock-down mandate.

We realize that these lock-down mandates have been tough on many families and businesses throughout the state and nation — especially those of us in blue states. If, however, the Lord has blessed you such that you are able to make a gift of $25, $50, $100 or even more during this end-of-year challenge, we would be incredibly grateful. Your sacrificial giving will help us get through this crisis and make it possible for us to continue our important work in 2021.

I am sending this update out because we have less than 90 hours to raise the remaining $55,250!

Please help us meet our goal by clicking here to make your most generous tax-deductible donation now.

We need YOU to help us take full advantage of this challenge! Please donate online or call the IFI office at (708) 781-9328 during normal business hours. You can even give a gift of stock or appreciated assets. Contact Colleen Garcia, IFI’s Financial Administrator, at (708) 781-9328 or email her HERE.

All donations received by Thursday, December 31st will count for 2020. Donations postmarked by Dec. 31st will also count and can be mailed to:

Illinois Family Institute
P.O. Box 876
Tinley Park, IL, 60477

Thank you for your generous support to begin 2021 equipped and ready to do battle.
