Thank you for your interest in donating to the Illinois Chapter of the Sierra Club. We depend on contributions from people like you who care about Illinois' environment.

 

The Illinois Chapter serves a unique niche in the community of Illinois environmental organizations.

 

Your gift to the Chapter supports:

  • Our state-wide network of dedicated grassroots volunteers
  • Lobbying Illinois state government for better environmental laws
  • Holding Illinois politicians accountable for their environmental actions
  • Using legal tools, when necessary, to fight for the protection of the Illinois' environment.

The Illinois Chapter has a long history as one of the most effective Sierra Club chapters in the country.

 

Your donation is essential for the Illinois Chapter to achieve our priorities:

  • Protecting Illinois' Natural Heritage
  • Cleaning Up Dirty Power
  • Permanent Protection For Illinois' Shawnee National Forest
  • Cleaning Up Our Rivers, Streams, and Beaches
  • Electing Environmental Champions

100% of your gift to the Illinois Chapter stays in Illinois to support our conservation efforts here in the Prairie State.
