The Fund’s Board is a diverse group of lawyers representing small firms, big firms, corporations, academia, and the public sector. Some members are new, and some are founders of The Fund, but they all have one thing in common: their dedication to supporting Legal Aid and its work providing legal services to the most vulnerable members of our community. Please join them in this important work.

Many thanks to the generous and dedicated members of The Fund for the Legal Aid Society’s Board.
