This Giving Tuesday, help us reach our goal to raise $10,000 through our Give an Hour campaign. By donating the equivalent of one hour’s billable time (or whatever you can), you will support access to justice by providing necessary legal services for the most vulnerable populations in San Diego.
In 2022, we are gearing up to grant more than $400,000 to community benefit organizations in San Diego. Your entire donation goes to provide access to justice to underserved San Diegans. The Bar Foundation undergoes a thorough review process of local charitable organizations and awards grants to those that strive to close the justice gap by supporting thousands of children, elderly, domestic violence victims, immigrants, veterans and so many more in need.
What is “Give an Hour”?
The San Diego County Bar Foundation is calling for all local attorneys, judges, legal professionals and community members to donate the monetary equivalent of one hour of your billable time or an amount you see fit. We know time is scarce, but we also know time is money. Giving an hour this way can make a huge difference.
