Kelly Santini Donates to Help Keep Law Help Centres Open
Kelly Santini LLP has responded to the need for emergency funding for Pro Bono Ontario to avoid the impending closure of the Law Help Centres in Ottawa and Toronto, by donating $10,000.00 to the fundraising campaign. The Law Help Centres provide services and advice to self-represented litigants, many of whom are members of marginalized communities, who would otherwise have no or only limited access to justice. The firm’s financial commitment to access to justice has been matched by the individual commitments of our lawyers for many years. Our lawyers volunteer at the Law Help Centres every month and donate hundreds of hours to help those in need of legal support.
Until a permanent funding solution can be found, other law firms from across the province are responding to this need, including:
- BLG
- McMillan
- Clyde and Co
- Cassels Brock
- Lax O’Sullivan
We are happy to join them in protecting the right of access to justice and we encourage more firms to support this important community service.
