Our Mission

Community Shares of Illinois links people and their passions, connecting caring donors with local organizations that are changing people's lives - and Illinois communities - for the better every day.

It's our mission to give employees expanded choices in workplace giving programs, enhance their awareness of the valuable services provided by local grassroots organizations, generate critically needed support for these organizations, and raise the level of workplace philanthropy in communities across Illinois.

Our Philosophy

We believe that when people choose to make a charitable contribution at their workplace, they should have the option to support the charities that most closely reflect their values and concerns.  Our program is designed to give employees a greater degree of choice when making charitable contributions through payroll deductions at work.  By pledging through Community Shares, employees can direct critically needed dollars to dozens of organizations that build social and economic equity and a healthy environment.
