WSBA is our state bar. The Bar Foundation is on a mission to keep it strong.
-
Innovation
WSBA is well suited to test bold, large-scale solutions for narrowing the justice gap and targeting the needs of people beyond the reach of other types of aid.
The Bar Foundation supports innovative programs like WSBA Moderate Means which is making legal help affordable for more people.
-
Focus
WSBA is uniquely positioned to move the needle on diversity. With a focus honed on retention and equality, WSBA is getting at the root of why people leave the profession, so the profession can offer better solutions, and incentives, to stay.
The Bar Foundation ensures WSBA has the resources to sustain its Diversity Programs.
-
Reach
WSBA, as the state bar, has the widest reach and influence to engage more lawyers in public service. By creating opportunities that make it easier and more rewarding to get involved, WSBA is enhancing the culture of service within the profession. It’s good for the public, lawyers, and the bar.
The Bar Foundation supports WSBA public service programs and clinics, like the Washington First Responder Will Clinic.
The Bar Foundation ensures WSBA has the resources to lead on issues of justice, public service, and diversity. Giving is voluntary and helps reduce pressure on license fees.
Join us. Give back. Be the Difference. Together we can remain a strong bar and we can advance WSBA's vision of a just Washington — where all people are equal under the law.
