An idea I've had for a while now is to put together a site like GoFundMe, specifically to crowdsource funding for people who couldn't otherwise afford legal representation. This is absolutely a good use case for such a project.
People really underestimate how much 2 or 3 community members who don't have to worry about working or making rent and focus solely on this issue can get done
If we could have something like a community strike fund that could be payed back into when/if their case is won, I'd happily donate while I have a stable job.
Who knows, maybe some day I'll be in some affected community that could make use of such a fund
