Tax deductibility depends on your country of residence, tax status, and local tax laws.

Currently, donations are tax deductible in the following countries: the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Germany, Spain, the Netherlands, Croatia, Romania, the Czech Republic, Indonesia, Australia, and New Zealand.

Donors should speak with their own tax advisor to understand what deductions apply to them.

If you are donating from the UK, Netherlands and Canada, please get in touch with us first.

We issue a formal receipt for eligible donations. Receipts may include the donor’s name, donation date, amount or declared value, and a description of the gift.

For year-end giving, donors should begin the transfer early enough to make sure the donation is received within the intended tax year.

Your donation supports grants to women-led and locally grounded organisations working on access to justice, survivor protection, legal empowerment, and community-based justice work.

Funds may support:

• Legal assistance and awareness;

• Psychosocial support;

• Protection and referral systems;

• Community-based justice work;

• Survivor advocacy and leadership;

• Protection needs;

• Organizational resilience;

• Legal and policy advocacy.

Donations of 30,000 USD upwards can be allocated for specific purposes, location or grantee who the Fund is already working with and has cleared TrustBridge’s due diligence processes. 

The Fund encourages flexible contributions because they allow resources to go where they are most needed.

Depending on the nature of the gift, donors may receive grantmaking updates, impact summaries, learning reflections, and information about how grantee partners are strengthening access to justice.

Because some partners work in sensitive or high-risk settings, the Fund may limit identifying details, images, locations, or personal stories to protect the safety and dignity of survivors, staff, and communities.

Partners of the Fund can also participate in invite-only events and meetings with grantee partners.

Potential grantee partners may be identified through trusted networks and aligned funders.

The Fund considers whether an organization is:

• Women-led or locally grounded;

• Working on access to justice for survivors of violence and at-risk populations;

• In a conflict-affected or fragile setting; and 

• Trusted by the communities it serves.

Our partner TrustBridge conducts due diligence before funds are disbursed.

This may include reviewing an organization’s charitable purpose, governance documents, financial information, board and leadership details, sanctions and compliance risk, proposed use of funds, and alignment with charitable purposes.

Donors may be able to give through several methods, including:

• Bank wire or transfer;

• Credit card;

• Real estate;

• Art or other non-liquid assets;

• Life insurance interests;

• Royalties;

• Charitable remainder gifts;

• Legacy or estate gifts.
