Thank You to our Donors
The Identity Documents Project is a student-run organization, which depends entirely on donations by law firms and individuals just like you. All of our advocates volunteer their time for free, but we need funds to assist our community members in paying the fees for obtaining name changes, new passports, and such. Your donation can ensure that no one has to use an ID which misidentifies them simply because they cannot afford to update it. Identity Documents Project's work is made possible by the following 2021/22 donors: Silver Level FRIED, FRANK, HARRIS, SHRIVER & JACOBSON LLP KIRKLAND & ELLIS LLP Bronze Level MORGAN, LEWIS & BOCKIUS LLP ARNOLD & PORTER KAYE SCHOLER LLP If you would like to donate to IDP, please email us at iddocumentsproject@gmail.com. We are a tax-exempt organization, and your donation is eligible for a charitable income tax deduction. You can also donate through PayPal. |
