SINCE ITS FORMATION, ISOC HAS BEEN FUNDED THROUGH BROAD SOURCES OF SUPPORT (AS OPPOSED TO MEMBERS OF A SINGLE FAMILY OR ONLY A FEW DONORS). IT HAS AN EXTENSIVE MEMBERSHIP BASE (77 organizational members, over 110,000 individual members, and 110 chapters) FROM AROUND THE WORLD, AND IT IS CONTINUALLY WORKING TO EXPAND ITS MEMBERSHIP, INCLUDING ORGANIZATIONAL MEMBERS WHO PAY DUES TO PROVIDE BASIC SUPPORT FOR THE MISSION OF ISOC. IT ALSO SOLICITS AND RECEIVES CONTRIBUTIONS FROM INDIVIDUAL DONORS, AS WELL AS GRANTS FROM OTHER NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS AND FOR-PROFIT COMPANIES.

ISOC ALSO HAS MORE THAN 110,000 INDIVIDUAL MEMBERS. ISOC DOES NOT CHARGE MEMBERSHIP DUES TO ITS INDIVIDUAL MEMBERS SINCE MANY OF THEM ARE LOCATED IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES AND IT DOES NOT WANT THE PAYMENT OF DUES TO BE A BARRIER TO INVOLVING AS BROAD A CONSTITUENCY AS POSSIBLE IN ITS PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES IN FURTHERANCE OF ITS MISSION. ISOC HAS A "DONATE" BUTTON ON ITS WEBSITE THAT MAKES IT CONVENIENT FOR INDIVIDUAL MEMBERS WHO CAN AFFORD TO DO SO TO MAKE CONTRIBUTIONS IN SUPPORT OF ISOC'S MISSION.
