2022 Matching Challenge Update - Illinois Family Institute

Dear Friends,

We’re almost there! Many of you have given sacrificially, and through December 31st these donations will be doubled up to $260,000 through the generosity of amazing supporters who agree with the work being done at Illinois Family Institute (IFI). I can’t tell you how grateful we are to know that you are willing to stand with us. Thank you!

We are closing in on our goal, but we are not there yet. We need your help if we hope to reach it.

With a deadline of midnight tonight, we still need to raise a little more than $60,000 to reach our goal!

If you haven’t made your tax-deductible, end-of-year donation to the only full-time, pro-family group in Illinois, there’s still time! No gift is too small! These last days of the year are extremely important for IFI as our budget depends on receiving a significant portion of our support by December 31st.

The support our media and state government give to anti-family forces in Illinois is outrageous, but things can get worse. Left-wing activists have plans to advance new ways to facilitate abortion, to celebrate and promote sexual deviance, and to grow a tyrannical government. You can be certain the media and the state government won’t be shilling for IFI the way they do for their own favored causes. Protecting life, marriage, religious liberty, and the traditional family in Illinois are not “politically correct” causes. In fact, the support of our state’s elite institutions is what helps keep the attack on the family going.

The only thing keeping IFI going is you! Thanks to you, we will expose and bring the fight to Illinois’ anti-family forces. Thanks to you, we can still succeed in 2022’s End-of-Year Matching Challenge. And thanks to you–if everyone receiving this message sends a donation–I believe we can make that success happen today.

Online credit card contributions before 12:00 midnight TONIGHT, December 31, will count as a contribution for 2022. Checks mailed today will also count toward our Matching Challenge goal.

I will let you know next week if we met our goal. Thank you so much, and may God bless you for your support.
