profession by supporting, facilitating and promoting
the delivery of pro bono legal services for non-profit
organizations through the Pro Bono Clearinghouse, by
providing financial support to others in greater Richmond
who provide pro bono legal services, and by involvement
in and sponsorship of law-related educational and service
projects that encourage public understanding of, participation
in and access to our justice system.
The objectives of the Foundation will
be accomplished through the promotion of volunteerism,
fund raising, grants designed to supplement local
bar initiatives and the advancement of programs identified
by the Foundation.

charitable arm of six local bar associations:
Bar Association of the City of Richmond,
Chesterfield County Bar Association, Hanover County
Bar Association, Henrico County Bar Association,
Old Dominion Bar Association, and the Metropolitan
Richmond Women’s Bar Association.
Each of these associations is represented
on the Foundation’s board of directors.
