Double Your Money, Double Your Fun

By Robert Ambrogi

OK, maybe I exaggerated about the “fun” part, but here is a chance to double your charitable impact this holiday season and promote the delivery of legal services to needy individuals and families, all at the same time.

If you donate any amount up to $50 to the Massachusetts Bar Foundation between now and Dec. 24, the law firm of Davis Malm & D’Agostine will match your gift dollar for dollar.

For more than 45 years, the MBF — the charitable partner of the Massachusetts Bar Association — has funded the civil legal aid programs that help individuals and families overcome injustice and regain stability in their lives. Contributions from attorneys and judges help the MBF carry out its mission. This year, these efforts are particularly critical in light of the funding crisis facing the legal aid community due to the dramatic decrease in IOLTA funding.

Support this worthy cause by making a gift during the annual fund drive — and take advantage of the generosity of Davis Malm to match your gift up to $50.
