August 2024 News of Note

FY25 Grant Cycle Applications Due August 30 

Applications for the DC Bar Foundation’s FY25 grant year are open now through August 30, 11:59 PM. This includes all three of our grant programs – Access to Justice, Civil Legal Counsel Projects Program, and General Support grants.   


You can access information on each of our grant programs, as well as new applicant registration, here: https://www.dcbarfoundation.org/grant-programs

 

Register for the DC Walk for Justice 5K by October 10

In an effort to make the Walk more accessible, we have removed the $25 cost of admission for all DC Walk for Justice 5K participants. However, we still invite walkers to make a gift to support civil legal aid in DC upon completing their registration by donating or create/join a fundraising team


Online fundraising teams give individuals the opportunity to raise funds for the DC Walk for Justice 5K in support of civil legal aid in DC. It is free to join a fundraising team - but, of course, you are encouraged to donate and invite your friends to do so as well. Joining a fundraising team also does not mean you are required to walk.  


Don’t miss out on this exciting event. Click HERE to register by our October 10 deadline.

Please save the date for the DC Bar Foundation’s Fall Reception on November 20, 2024, at Regan Zambri Long PLLC (1919 M Street NW, Suite 600, Washington, DC 20036).
