Matching Gift Programs

Your monthly donation will support the work of Administer Justice by providing consistent funds for our staff to resource churches hosting centers, volunteers training to serve, and further engage churches around the country interested in providing access to justice. Our staff works to ensure established centers are supported, new centers are launched, and partners developed.

Specifically, we have identified that it costs $5,000 to launch a center. This is a one-time fee that provides materials for the center, systems to manage data and scheduling, and liability insurance for our volunteer lawyers to provide advice. After launch, the center is entirely sustainable through the $30 copay that the clients are asked to pay one-time per legal issue. (Follow-up appointments are available free of charge to clients who need additional support or guidance.) Learn more about the $5,000 launch fee.

Yes, if your church has launched or is launching a center, your gift can help clients receive the legal support they need through client copay scholarships.

To give online toward waived or reduced client copays at your center, email hope@administerjustice.org or contact your center’s Justice Champion. To give by check, note the center name on the memo line so your gift is directed there.

All donations are received as non‑restricted and will be put to their best use, but we gladly honor your designation to support clients at that center.

Giving a general gift to Administer Justice strengthens your local center by funding the systems, training, and support that help every center thrive.

Visit our Church Leader page for information about hosting a center. Feel free to share it with your church leadership or reach out to Emily O’Donnell with any questions or to set up an exploratory call.

Torchbearers are a community of individuals who want to see the underserved receive the help of a lawyer and the hope of God’s love. To become a Torchbearer, simply set up any recurring monthly gift to Administer Justice. You’ll receive monthly updates on how God is working through the country as churches and volunteers are engaged and working together to ignite a movement to provide access to justice for all.

Torchlighters are supporters of Administer Justice who give the gift of at least $5,000 to open a center. With this gift, a new church can launch a Gospel Justice Center and begin impacting their community by offering the help of a lawyer and the hope of God’s love through the home of the church. Learn more about Torchlighters here.

There are many other ways to get involved! You can learn about launching a center, providing legal advice, or volunteering at a center. Also, spread the word to others who you believe would be interested in supporting or getting involved in this work.
