OUR ACTIVITY WAS CONDUCTED MAINLY ONLINE, ALTHOUGH WE WERE BASED IN MINNESOTA. WE WERE COMPLETELY FUNDED BY DONATIONS FROM INDIVIDUALS. WE ARE A VOLUNTEER-RUN NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION. WE ACCOMPLISHED OUR MISSION ONCE THE LAST FEW COURT CASES WERE RESOLVED AND THUS DID NOT HAVE MUCH ACTIVITY IN 2024. WE PUT OUR EFFORTS IN 2024 TOWARDS FINISHING OUT THE LAST OF OUR ORGANIZATIONAL TASKS AND DISSOLVING THE ORGANIZATION.
