Legal services are human services. Your gift will provide and support the provision of legal services that benefit individuals by protecting their livelihoods in ways that only our profession can.
There are many ways to make your gift now and in the future to ensure successful charitable programming. Issue a gift through your Donor-Advised Fund, make an IRA Distribution, or leave a legal legacy with a Planned Gift. The FJE would be delighted to work with your tax advisor or estate planner on these planned giving strategies.
