Start with the need.
A client shares a private request. CILAN reviews the service need and quote. A separate consent step controls whether a story may be published.
Clarity at every step
Good support starts with trust.
A private application. A reviewed service quote. A public story shared by choice. Here is how the CILAN funding process comes together.
Choose how to help.
Donors can support an individual, join a group campaign, or contribute to a community pool. The service and operations amounts are shown before contributing.
Follow the next steps.
The portal records contributions, service allocations, and milestones. Reserved funds and funds used for completed services appear separately.
Your contribution, in plain numbers
An illustrative $100 available after fees under the current planned policy:
Client services · 80%$80.00
CILAN operations & mission$20.00
The recorded policy follows the contribution even if CILAN later changes the split for new gifts. Any real processor charges must be disclosed before checkout. No real payments are enabled in this preview.
Your choice, CILAN’s responsibility
Campaign preferences help guide funding. CILAN retains control over charitable use, eligibility, service approval, and allocation. Client-service money is allocated to reviewed service needs; it is not unrestricted cash paid to an individual.
A campaign cannot accept a contribution whose service portion exceeds its remaining goal. Donors may choose another campaign or the community pool. Unassigned pool funds remain recorded until allocated. A group’s shared funds stay within that group’s included campaigns. Service allocation never guarantees an immigration outcome.
Questions are welcome.
Who can request support?
CILAN is developing assistance for underserved immigrants and families. A request begins with a private intake and review; submitting a request does not guarantee eligibility, a public campaign, representation, or funding.
Do I have to publish my name or my immigration details?
No. The public story uses a chosen display name and a broad region. Private intake is separate. Publication requires consent for the specific story version, and a client can withdraw that consent. Avoid including sensitive identifiers or case numbers in any public story.
What is the difference between a group and the community pool?
A group campaign brings selected, approved individual campaigns together. Group-designated service funds may be allocated among those members. Community-pool service funds can be assigned by CILAN to eligible approved campaigns across the program.
What happens after I contribute?
The donor portal displays the contribution, the split recorded at that time, and any service allocations. Milestones describe progress while protecting private intake. In the interactive preview, these transactions and records are entirely simulated.
Is CILAN already DOJ-recognized?
CILAN is pursuing organizational recognition, and founder Kimm C. King Jr. is pursuing individual accreditation with full accreditation as the goal for immigration court representation. The website does not represent those approvals as already granted.
Are contributions tax deductible?
No tax-deductibility promise is made here. CILAN’s current federal tax status and the applicable terms must be confirmed before public fundraising opens. Preview acknowledgments explicitly identify simulated contributions and are not tax receipts.
