An only slightly less impractical pan would be to get 1 or 2 lawyers who can train non lawyer volunteers and occasionally advise.
But finding even those 1 or 2 who have the necessary expertise and are willing/able to participate will be a challenge.
Have you ever been involved in a project like this at any level?
I helped to organize a couple protests back when I was in college, but I haven't done fundraising or nonprofit organisation. I volunteered to hand out food donations to impoverished families locally but I didn't organize in that case.
OK step 1 on this plan is to get involved in something that works in a similar way so you can get some perspective on the task you are proposing.
I promise you: the reason this doesn't exist already is not because nobody's ever had the idea.
For that matter, maybe it does exist. Step 0 is to find out for sure if it already exists, even if it sucks. Or if it ever existed. You'll want to know about that.
