National Pro Bono Celebration

The National Pro Bono Celebration is an annual event in the United States that highlights and promotes the importance of providing free legal services to those in need. It takes place during the first full week of October and brings together lawyers, legal organizations, and community members to recognize and engage in pro bono work. The goal is to ensure that everyone, regardless of their financial situation, has access to legal assistance. This celebration includes events like legal clinics, workshops, and awareness campaigns to encourage more attorneys to volunteer their time and skills to help underserved populations.
