Legal and Governance

Clergy Care Collective is a 501(c)(3) public charity, incorporated in the State of Illinois. We are governed by a Board of Directors committed to transparency, integrity, and fidelity to both civil law and Gospel values.

Our Executive Director is a licensed attorney (pending bar passage in July 2025) and our Chief Financial Officer is an experienced CPA. Together with our independent accountant, they ensure full compliance with all applicable state and federal regulations. We are dedicated to rigorous internal controls, ethical leadership, and sound stewardship of donor funds.

Our Commitments:

  • Annual independent audits by an external accountant.

  • Publication of annual financial statements and IRS Form 990 filings.

  • Adherence to best practices in nonprofit governance.

  • Protection of donor privacy: we never sell or share personal donor information.

  • Leadership compensation tied to public school teacher salary scales, ensuring prudence and humility in financial matters.

We believe faithful ministry demands lawful, transparent, and accountable structures. If you have questions or concerns about our governance, we invite you to contact us directly.
