“Justice for all” is a fundamental American value. Yet, hundreds of thousands of Wisconsin citizens cannot afford legal help when facing life-changing (and sometimes life-threatening) situations. We strive to change that. You can help today by giving generously.

Qualified Charitable Distributions: Taxpayers aged 70 1/2 or older may use distributions from an IRA directly to a charitable organization. Suppose the distribution is sent directly from the IRA trustee to the charitable organization. In that case, it is not included in the taxpayer’s gross income and qualifies for the required minimum distribution*. Contact your IRA institution for more information.
Donate through planned giving: Please help us plan by notifying us about your planned giving. Leave a lasting legacy for equal justice by making a planned gift, including retirement plans and life insurance policies.
Donate cy pres funds: Have residual funds from a settlement or class action lawsuit? You can donate those funds to WEJF and make a difference in the access to justice for low-income individuals and families in Wisconsin. Simply designate the Wisconsin Equal Justice Fund to receive any residual funds in the settlement agreement.
