Borealis Philanthropy
Category: Social Change
DescriptionThe Organization is a national funder collaborative whose goal is to ensure that the nation’s immigration enforcement system is fair, humane, and prioritizes the civil and human rights of those vulnerable to deportation. The Organization’s Immigration Litigation Fund believes that litigation is an essential tool in achieving public policy and social change on immigration issues. The Fund’s grantmaking prioritizes litigation efforts that are connected to, and coordinated with, immigrant communities and organizations. The Fund supports impact litigation efforts that challenge discriminatory, unlawful, and overly punitive immigration enforcement policies and practices at any stage of the enforcement trajectory from identification and apprehension, to detention and removal, as well as efforts to exclude certain immigrants from entering the country. The Fund provides time-limited, project support for impact litigation costs and strategic convenings meant to advance coordination on an issue related to enforcement and impact litigation efforts. Before submitting an application, the Fund encourages applicants to call and discuss their project. Additional information can be found on the Web site.
