It appears the ACLU received over $24 Million in online donations over the weekend, over 6 times what they normally receive online in an entire year. And apparently they had received a record setting (at the time) $15 million in donations in the weeks after Trump's election.

While I haven't heard exact numbers it seems many other groups, from Planned Parenthood to various environmental and social justice groups have also seen a big uptick in donations.
