Look for 350 Chicago this Campaign Season!
350 Chicago has joined Community Shares of Illinois’ coalition of local nonprofits and can now benefit from donations through giving campaigns at workplaces throughout Illinois.
Community Shares was established by various nonprofits for the purpose of fundraising on their behalf through workplace giving campaigns. Through the campaigns, each individual donor decides which charity or group of charities will receive their donation based on which organization is working on the issues and causes the donor cares about the most in their community.
With these donations 350 Chicago will continue to fight the climate crisis in Illinois. Our mission is to build a sustainable and resilient state by educating ourselves and our communities, engaging with leaders, organizing coalitions to achieve goals, and taking grassroots action.
If you are a current state or county employee in Illinois including at Illinois universities and the public school systems, you can donate to 350 Chicago through the State and Universities Employees Combined Appeal (SECA)website. If you are submitting the paperwork manually, you will need to include the seven digit designation code of 903-0710 to correctly identify our organization for the donations.
Workplace giving campaigns take place every fall in numerous workplaces throughout Illinois. Unsure if you can donate to 350 Chicago through Community Shares in the next workplace giving campaign? Check out the Community Shares website at
