FINAL 12 HOURS
Your gift is still TRIPLED — but only for the next 12 hours.
If you’ve been waiting to give, this is the moment. Here are the 12 most powerful ways your matched gift makes a real, immediate difference:
1. Protects people with disabilities from abuse, neglect, and exploitation — including financial exploitation and misuse of representative payee funds
2. Ensures accountability when police and other systems cause harm — advancing civil rights, safety, and justice
3. Defends the rights of people with disabilities in jails, prisons, and the criminal legal system — securing treatment, accommodations, and humane conditions
4. Keeps people out of institutions and in their communities — where they belong
5. Ensures access to mental health care and community-based services when systems fail
6. Protects students denied special education services and assistive technology — in classrooms and beyond
7. Fights for fair treatment in employment, higher education, and the community
8. Stops people from falling through the cracks during transitions and crises — when systems disengage or funding lapses
9. Holds state agencies and service systems accountable through oversight, monitoring, and enforcement
10. Supports people navigating guardianship — and those working to reclaim their rights
11. Protects voting access for disabled voters and defends democracy
12. Trains advocates and attorneys statewide to multiply impact across Illinois
For the next 12 hours, every dollar you give goes 3x as far — helping Equip for Equality meet rising need and enter the new year ready, come what may.
