IPA Charities Supports the Third Way Foundation

Buffalo Grove, IL, February 14, 2009 --(PR.com)-- IPA Charities has contributed $12,500 to The Third Way Foundation.

The Third Way Foundation, formerly known as The Progressive Foundation, is a nonprofit corporation organized under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Third Way is a global movement dedicated to modernizing progressive politics for the information age.

Third Way politics seeks a new balance of economic dynamism and social security, a new social compact based on individual rights and responsibilities and a new model for governing that equips citizens and communities to solve their own problems.

The Third Way approach to economic opportunity and security stresses technological innovation, competitive enterprise and education rather than top-down redistribution or laissez faire. On questions of values, it embraces “tolerant traditionalism,” honoring traditional moral and family values while resisting attempts to impose them on others.

The Third Way favors an enabling rather than a bureaucratic government, expanding choices for citizens, using market means to achieve public ends and encouraging civic and community institutions to play a larger role in public life. Finally, The Third Way works to build inclusive, multiethnic societies based on common allegiance to democratic values.
