Illinois Voices, Inc. (501(c)(4))
Becoming a corporation recognized by the State of Illinois has several benefits. First, it provides a level of credibility as a nonprofit organization. Incorporating takes time, effort, and money, and shows that we are an organization to be taken seriously. Second, it  provides legitimacy with regards to fund raising, donations, and fiscal management. Third, it provides protections for key individuals in  the organization such that liability shifts from individual members to the corporation as a whole. Finally, incorporating allows us to take advantage of benefits offered specifically to corporations, such as bulk mailing permits and corporate rates from many vendors. We have chosen to incorporate as a non-profit 501(c)(4).

There is a difference between a 501(c)(4) and a non-profit (c)(3). Specifically, a (c)(4) is allowed to become involved in political issues,  including lobbying, whereas a (c)(3) has strict limits on its ability to be politically involved. The other key difference is that donations made to our corporation as a 501(c)(4) are NOT tax deductible. We believe that incorporating as a (c)(4) is essential since much of the work we do involves influencing legislation and legislators, which is considered political activity.


Illinois Voices promotes the elimination of sexual abuse and the preservation of civil rights for all individuals through the use of effective legislation based on empirical research. Our organization does not support or condone any individual or organization that promotes or legitimizes any sort of sexual or physical assaults on children or adults. We do not tolerate or associate with any individual or organization that engages in illegal activities. We vehemently oppose any organization that seeks to legitimize abusive sexual behavior or sexual activities between adults and children.
