The Massachusetts Bar Foundation (MBF) is one of three recipients of Interest on Lawyers’ Trust Accounts (IOLTA) funds. These funds are reserved for programs that provide civil legal services to low-income clients and/or improve the administration of justice.
This year, the MBF expects to award approximately $6 million through its IOLTA Grants Program. All members of the MBF’s Society of Fellows are invited to participate in this vital grantmaking process by joining a Grant Advisory Committee.
Each year, over 80 MBF Fellows play a crucial role in the grant review process by volunteering to review applications and make funding recommendations. Many find this work highly rewarding, as it allows them to engage closely with the MBF’s mission of advancing justice for all. The MBF is deeply grateful for the legal expertise and dedication that Fellows contribute to this process.
MBF Fellows, your involvement is essential in ensuring the MBF’s impact reaches those who need it most.
