| IRS990/Desc | 0 | Grants The Impact Fund makes recoverable grants to lawyers, small law firms, and nonprofit organizations involved in impact litigation. We fund civil rights, human rights, anti-poverty, and environmental justice cases that will affect a marginalized group. Most of our grants are for class actions, but we also fund multi-plaintiff and environmental justice cases that aim to significantly affect a larger system or lead to significant law reform. In the 2020/21 fiscal year, the Impact Fund disbursed a total of $310,000 in grant funding via 16 recoverable grants. The Impact Fund has committed around $8 million to justice-related causes since the organizations inception. |
