Pro Bono Award

Pro Bono Awardees are Detroit Bar members who contributed 30 hours of pro bono work from November 1 through October 15 by volunteering for the Detroit Legal Services Clinic or for one of the many pro bono opportunities listed on the Detroit Bar Gateway. Awardees receive a certificate and an electronic badge that can be used professionally on their website, business cards, etc. They are also recognized at the annual Archer Award Gala in November.

Please click this link and give a brief description of your pro bono volunteer activities  from November 1 until October 15.  All submissions must be received by October 15. Include the name of the organization you served, clinic date and number of hours.  If you participated in direct case work, please indicate the number of cases in addition to the hours.

Pro bono opportunities are listed at the Detroit Bar Pro Bono Gateway.
