How are innocence projects funded?
The cost of operating an innocence project is minimal, in our experience. For most innocence projects, office equipment will be provided by their universities and most of the costs incurred are logistical, such as students’ travelling expenses when visiting prisoners, etc. Many member innocence projects have also adopted innovative methods for sponsorship and fund-raising, such as organising fund-raising events and approaching student unions and local law firms for sponsorship and support.
