AILF is a nonprofit organization. They are not charging for this work. AILF's work is all funded through donations, usually from law firms, including the Murthy Law Firm. While not required, we think that those who participate in the lawsuit should consider making a donation to AILF, even if it is small, to help fund this effort. There is strength in numbers, and if enough people give even $100- $200, it will raise a substantial amount of money and defray AILF's costs considerably.
