Support the FoundationThe generosity of the Columbus legal community has made it possible for the Foundation to make over $3 million ($1.2 million to the Legal Aid Society of Columbus) in grants since 1996. These gifts have enabled lawyers to help children stay in their homes, ensure that senior citizens get needed benefits for life saving medical treatments, and help returning veterans obtain the benefits they have surely earned.
