About Immigrant Legal Resource Center
Immigrant Legal Resource Center’s grantmaking is built around legal infrastructure for immigrants: support for program activities reaches national and local legal service providers, advocacy groups, and technical-assistance organizations working on immigration law and policy. The largest recent grants show that pattern clearly. In 2023, the foundation gave $1,176,722 to the Naleo Educational Fund in Los Angeles, and it followed with another seven-figure award to the Clinic National Office in Silver Spring, Maryland, in 2024. Those awards sit alongside repeated support for the Asian Americans Advancing Justice – Southern California office in Los Angeles, which received more than $3 million across 2023 to 2025 in the recent-grants list. The portfolio also includes grantees such as UnidosUS in Washington, DC; the Texas Civil Rights Project in Austin; and the International Rescue Committee in New York, showing a mix of national intermediaries and regional legal or immigrant-rights organizations. The stated focus areas include asylum, detention, DACA, citizenship and naturalization, family-based immigration, immigrant youth, removal defense, post-conviction relief, and public charge. The foundation is a Public Charity and Pure DAF Provider, with annual grants of $19.9 million and total assets of $48.6 million.
What Immigrant Legal Resource Center Funds
Immigration law training and technical assistance are central to the foundation’s support. The recent-grants list includes $1,142,131 to the Clinic National Office in 2024 and $1,007,328 in 2025, both for support of program activities, indicating substantial backing for legal-service capacity. Policy and advocacy work also appears in the portfolio: UnidosUS received $285,800 in 2024 and $197,904 in 2025 for program activities. In California-based immigrant services, the foundation gave $227,891 to Immigrant Legal Defense in Oakland and $225,022 to CLSEPA in East Palo Alto, again framed as program support. The grant list also includes support for Catholic Charities of Santa Clara County in San Jose and Catholic Charities SF in San Mateo, suggesting funding for service delivery organizations that work with immigrant communities.
How Immigrant Legal Resource Center Gives
Typical grants cluster in the middle range rather than at a single size: the p25 is $15,000, the median is $30,000, and the p75 is $91,000. The recent list also shows repeated awards to the same organizations across multiple years, including the Clinic National Office, Naleo Educational Fund, and the Asian Americans Advancing Justice – Southern California office, which points to ongoing support rather than one-time awards. The foundation is a Public Charity and a Pure DAF Provider, and the listed grants are consistently restricted to support of program activities. No individual applications are shown in the data.
