Why Your Support Matters
ICE List exists because people deserve to know who is doing the raids in their communities, who is detaining people, who is running the field offices, who is profiting off the detention system, and which counties quietly sign 287(g) deals behind closed doors. None of this work is funded by ads, sponsors, or outside influence. It survives because people want this information to exist.
Where Donations Go
A large part of the work involves digging into FOIA disclosures, filing new FOIA requests, paying for searches, redactions, duplication fees, and the constant back-and-forth with agencies who deliberately slow everything down. FOIA isn’t free in the United States, especially when dealing with DHS or ICE. Some requests cost tens or hundreds just to get started, and big releases can hit the thousands.
Donations also cover the environment the project runs on: hosting, server resources, database load, file storage, mapping, security hardening, backups, and the bandwidth it takes to keep a public investigative database online without throttling access.
Independence
No corporate funding, no political sponsors, no advertisers. Just the work, the evidence, the documentation, and the public record. Donations let ICE List stay exactly what it needs to be, completely unaligned with anyone except the truth.
ICE List is not a registered charity. Donations are not tax-deductible. They directly support research, hosting, FOIA fees, and infrastructure.
