Stop atrocity crimes and create accountability by training and mentoring local actors to collect admissible evidence, providing independent legal counsel and investigations, and empowering communities to secure justice and reparations.
Project Expedite Justice centers its grantmaking on atrocity crimes, legal accountability, and evidence collection, using subgrants to support specific project goals. In 2025, its largest recent grant was $265,368 to Physicians for Human Rights for work tied to supporting lawful governance, showing a preference for implementation through established partners. Another sizable award went to the Health Professionals Network for Tigray, which received $71,001 under the same project. The foundation’s stated mission emphasizes training and mentoring local actors to collect admissible evidence, providing independent legal counsel and investigations, and helping communities pursue justice and reparations. That framing places legal process and documentation at the center of its work rather than broad, general-purpose philanthropy. The recent awards also indicate attention to conflict-affected settings, including support for Ukraine and Sudan in the foundation’s focus areas. Its grantmaking is structured around project-specific, restricted support, with funds flowing through collaborative and implementation-focused partnerships to organizations working on governance, justice, and accountability.
A core theme is lawful governance and justice-sector support. The foundation gave $42,836 to Organization for Justice and Accountability in the Horn of Africa for a project labeled supporting lawful governance, alongside a $10,832 subgrant to Friends of Fafg Inc under the same project goal. Another strand is evidence and documentation work: $46,099 went to the International Coalition of Sites of Conscience for supporting stability and rule of law, pointing to an interest in preserving records and building accountability infrastructure. The foundation’s broader focus areas also include documentation of war crimes, investigations, and capacity building and mentoring, with explicit attention to Ukraine and Sudan. Across these examples, the grants are tied to defined project purposes rather than open-ended support.
The recent grants show a wide spread in size, from $10,832 at the low end to $265,368 at the high end. The median of the five listed grants is $46,099, with the middle half falling between $42,836 and $71,001. That pattern suggests a mix of larger anchor awards and smaller supporting subgrants within the same project stream. The foundation is a public charity, and the listed awards are all described as subgrants to achieve specific project goals. Based on the available recent-grants list, the same recipients do not appear more than once, which points to one-off awards in this snapshot rather than repeated grants to the same organization.
