As the cost of living rises in all BC communities, more British Columbians than ever face acute forms of financial strain, housing insecurity, relationship breakdown and other poverty-rooted hardships. The need for free legal services from volunteer lawyers has never been higher in our province.
In one effort to meet this unprecedented need, Access Pro Bono is holding its 16th annual free legal advice-a-thon --called Pro Bono Going Public 2023-- so BC lawyers can support its charitable work and do their part to increase access to justice in their communities.
This September 5 to 22, I'll be one of about 150 volunteer lawyers providing free legal help to fellow British Columbians. I'd really appreciate your support! You can lend your support by making a charitable donation via the 'DONATE NOW' button on my fundraising page.
Thank you in advance for your generosity. All funds raised by Pro Bono Going Public 2023 will go directly to support Access Pro Bono's wide array of free legal advice and representation programs.
