Double Our Ability to Fight for You!

A couple of days ago, I announced the kick-off of our End-of-Year Matching Challenge. Any donation IFI receives until December 31st–up to $40,000–will be matched by a group of generous benefactors.  Our goal is to raise $80,000 or more this month!

There are just a few weeks left in this End-of-Year Campaign. But we have only raised a tiny percentage of our goal so far! We still have a long way to go if we are to secure the full amount of the Matching Challenge. And roughly one quarter of our annual operating expenses depend on the success of this campaign!

Traditionally, the last few weeks of the year are when many of you make your most generous annual gift to the fight for faith and family here in our home state. And to those of you who have already contributed to the End-of-Year Campaign, we cannot thank you enough!  Many IFI supporters share our excitement about the matching challenge and want to make sure we continue strong into 2015. Your concern for our success means a lot to us.

Our mission at Illinois Family Institute is to stand for biblical, Judeo-Christian values, and in doing so, to help bring Illinois back to a state in which religious liberty flourishes, families prosper and every human life is valued. Your support by the end of the year will ensure that we have the resources necessary to fulfill our mission in 2015.

Once again, any donation received by (or postmarked on) December 31st will be matched. If you contribute $50 this month, IFI will receive $100, if you give $1,000 we will receive $2,000 and so forth. New sustaining partners (monthly donors) will have their contributions matched for the first year, if pledged by December 31st.

No amount, whether a monthly or one-time gift, is too small or too large. We appreciate all of your donations more than we can possibly say.

May the Lord bless you and your family during this holy season. And thank you for helping Illinois’ leading pro-family organization continue the fight for faith and family in our “deep blue” state!

Please partner with us and make a tax-deductible gift today.

May God bless you and your family this Christmas season.

Sincerely,

David E. Smith
Executive Director
