Defending the Innocent, Around the World, Together!
NOTE: Per the IRS rules and regulations for Charitable Organizations under Sec. 501(c)3 the International Innocence Initiative has been declared tax-exempt as a bonafide public charity. Donors can thus deduct any contributions that they make to our organization from their own federal taxes under Internal Revenue Code Section 170. We are also eligible to receive tax-deductible bequests, devises, transfers, or gifts under Sections 2055, 2106, or 2522. For access to the IRS Determination letter, either ask us or use the below link to download the official copy of our Determination letter directly from the IRS.
If you are interested in finding out how you can make a donation to the International Innocence Initiative that is tax-deductible (prior to our Official Web Donation Page going live), please contact us by one of the following means:
A portion of each donation helps pay for the time our team spends preparing for each case. Typically our cases require both a local attorney in the place of arrest and an attorney from the Initiative.
Expenses
Donations help pay for food, gas, and lodging for our legal team as they work to help others. Translations, transcripts, and other legal expenses are also paid for by donations
Fees
Your gift helps to offset any additional court fees or Expert Witness fees associated with the cases that we take on.
Travel
Our team often travels large distances to meet our clients, who may be all over the world. Donations help offset travel costs.
