Financial Strength

ELPC’s financial support is diverse and growing. Our annual revenues of about $10.2 million are raised from foundations, major donors, and members across the Midwest.  We appreciate and value the support of all of ELPC’s donors, who help enable our successful advocacy to improve environmental quality and advance economic development.

Commitment to Transparency

ELPC consistently earns Charity Navigator’s ‘exceptional’ rating — 4 out of a possible 4 stars — which means we “exceed industry standards and outperform most charities in our cause.” ELPC also earns the GuideStar Platinum participation level.

These ratings demonstrate how efficiently ELPC uses donations, how well we sustain our programs and services over time, and our level of commitment to being accountable. They are also a testament to our organization’s commitment to data transparency.

ELPC Receives Clean Audits Every Year

We don’t take that as a given, and neither should you. Clean audit opinions from independent auditors confirm that we are managing our finances properly. We think that this is important, and we expect that our donors do as well. You may download our most recent audit (FY2023) and 990. ELPC’s prior 990 tax forms can be found online with Guidestar.
