Make a rewarding investment in Silicon Valley.  
  Story Box Top

While public funding of legal services is decreasing, the need for legal services in our community is increasing — a real challenge for the Pro Bono Project. To meet this challenge, we are trying to engage more Silicon Valley law firms in supporting our work. Because most of our volunteer attorneys are sole practitioners, we are seeking more financial and in-kind support from the larger firms in our community. You and your firm can help:


"As a volunteer with the Project, I see how efficiently and effectively this staff works to serve literally thousands of clients each year."

Nisreen Baroudi,
Esq.
