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.
Any donation made online will be treated as unrestricted. Call (614) 221-4112 if you wish to make a restricted donation to a specific fund. CBF Annual Report Download the 2018-2019 Annual Report for more information about the breadth of the Foundation's work. |
