Donate
Keep legal aid and therapy free for the people who need them
Every service we provide is free to the person receiving it. Donations pay for lawyers' time, therapy sessions, transport to homes and prisons, and the hotline. Thank you for considering it.
Financial transparency
How we account for your money
- Our accounts are audited each year by an independent auditor. We publish the audit in full.
- We publish an annual report showing income, spending by programme, and what the money paid for.
- Designated gifts are tracked separately and spent only on the fund you chose.
- We never charge the people we help. Every donation goes toward services, not toward covering what clients would otherwise pay.
- Every donor receives a receipt. Regular donors receive a short update each quarter.
Other ways to give
Organisations, law firms, and foundations can fund a whole programme, second staff, or provide in-kind support such as office space or transport. Write to help@thebalance-ethiopia.org.
Give your time instead
Licensed lawyers and psychologists can take on a small pro bono caseload with training and supervision.
