Organization Description:
Our mission is to improve the quality of life for low-income communities in Texas by providing pro bono business law resources to nonprofits and microentrepreneurs for whom legal assistance is financially out of reach. We fulfill this mission by connecting eligible nonprofits and microenterprises to attorney volunteers through Texas C-BAR and LAMP (Legal Assistance to Microenterprises Project).
