What Planned Parenthood Illinois Action does
Mission
Planned Parenthood Illinois Action (PPIA) is an independent, nonpartisan, 501(c)(4) not-for-profit organization formed as the advocacy and political arm of Planned Parenthood in Illinois. PPIA engages in educational and electoral activity, including public education campaigns, grassroots organizing, and legislative advocacy on behalf of commonsense policies that protect and foster the sexual and reproductive health and rights of individuals, families, and communities.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Illinois Action's purpose is to promote social welfare and to encourage and protect informed individual choice regarding reproductive health care and to advocate public policies, which guarantee the right, as well as full nondiscriminatory access, to such care, and to foster and preserve a social and political climate favorable to the exercise of reproductive choice.

The program described on its FY2024 Form 990. Program spending in total: $164,206.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2017 to 2018, from $318k to $832k (+162%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2020 2%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
100% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund Planned Parenthood Illinois Action.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 100% · 2019 100% · 2020 100% · 2021 100% · 2022 100% · 2023 99% — broadly stable.
