Recently, the Atlanta Council of Young Lawyers ACYL section of the Atlanta Bar Association kicked off its annual Associates Campaign for Legal Services. The campaign, which began in 2000 and has raised more than $420,000 for Atlanta-area nonprofit legal organizations over the years, generated more than $40,000 last year.
In this year’s challenging economic environment, the charitable outlook appears potentially less promising. Conversations with colleagues across the metro area reveal a reticence toward giving. These reservations are understandable. I hope, however, they will not form the entirety of associates’ thinking about whether to give to this campaign or other worthwhile charitable causes.
