Since 2003, the Austin Bar Association has hosted an annual gala to raise funds for the Austin Bar Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. The Foundation supports law-related community projects that provide legal assistance to those in need, offers legal education to the community at large, and supports attorney well-being. These law-related projects include the Diversity Fellowship Program, the Justice Mack Kidd Fund, the CANLAW clinic, the Law-Related Education in Schools Committee, Austin Adoption Day, and the Veterans’ Legal Clinics. Since its inception, the Foundation has raised more than $1.4 million for Austin-area legal programs.
Through the Austin Bar Foundation’s grant program, the Foundation furthers its mission to improve public awareness of the legal system, the administration of justice, and the delivery of legal services. Past recipients of Austin Bar Foundation grants include: CASA of Travis County, American Gateways, Volunteer Legal Services, Texas Accountants and Lawyers for the Arts, Austin Community Law Center, Austin Classical Guitar’s Juvenile Justice program, the Texas Fair Defense Fund, the Texas RioGrande Legal Aid, and many others.
This year, gala funds will be used by the Austin Bar Foundation to support DEI-related legal services.
