Partner Legacy Support Program
2013 – Present
EWMI takes pride in its commitment to its local partners and established the Partner Legacy Support Program in 2013 as a mechanism to continue to fund its partners around the world. To date, EWMI has accepted donations from individuals, foundations, and donor advised funds for partners in Cambodia, Kosovo, and Liberia that promote access to justice for the most vulnerable groups in various political, economic and cultural contexts.
In recognition the important contributions made by long-time collaborator Lester Salamon and his colleagues at the Johns Hopkins University Center for Civil Society Studies to the understanding of civil society worldwide, EWMI is pleased to support the maintenance of the Center’s online archive to ensure continuing access to the Center’s research, history, and knowledge. Please visit ccss.jhu.edu to learn more about the Center and its work.
EWMI accepts donations for the Partner Legacy Support Program through our Give Lively page.
