Contributions by Check
Make check(s) out to: Citizen Action of Wisconsin (political) OR Citizen Action of WI Education Fund (*tax-deductible). You can send a check to Citizen Action’s office in Milwaukee: 221 S 2nd St, Suite 300, Milwaukee WI, 53204.
To ensure that your check goes toward your Organizing Cooperative membership, please write “cooperative” on the memo line of the check, or include a letter in the envelope that indicates that it is to be used for your Organizing Cooperative dues payments.
*What is the difference between political and tax-deductible? Citizen Action is made up of two different legal entities: a 501c4 social welfare nonprofit and a 501c3 tax deductible nonprofit. What that means is that contributions to the “social welfare” arm allows for a greater percent of staff time to elections, endorsements, lobbying and more, but is not tax deductible. Contributions to the “tax deductible” arm cannot be spent on election work, but does allow a tax deduction for those interested.
