Make a Rewarding Investment in Silicon Valley.
While approximately 90% of our services to clients are provided by volunteers, we need to maintain staff to recruit, supervise, train, mentor and coordinate the volunteers. To do that we need donations and financial support.
You and your firm or business can help:
- Make a donation of any size.
- Sponsor our annual volunteer events.
- Donate equipment and services to support our work.
- Designate the Pro Bono Project as the recipient of a cy pres award.
Make an unrestricted donation to the Pro Bono Project.
Checks should be made out to “Pro Bono Project Silicon Valley” and mailed to:
Pro Bono Project Silicon Valley
900 E Hamilton Avenue Suite 100
Campbell, CA 95008
Did you know… You can give to the Pro Bono Project through United Way Combined Federal Campaign or California State Employees Charitable Campaign payroll deductions or annual contributions! Simply fill in the Pro Bono Project’s name in the agency designation spot on your pledge form. If your company or firm does not have a United Way program in place, please talk with your Human Resources Director about starting one.

In a class action unclaimed funds may exist, or a defendant’s conduct may have made restitution to those harmed impossible. Courts have often found the “next best use” is to direct the funds to an appropriate organization. Courts usually rely upon the parties to determine which organizations would be appropriate.
The Pro Bono Project will often be a great choice. Our volunteer attorneys make the courts and the protection of the laws accessible to the most vulnerable members of our community. We accept cases in all areas of civil law. For information contact Sandra Madrigal at (408-998-5298).
