NH Bar Foundation: A Law Firm Legacy: Create a Justice Fund
The Law: It has honored us; May we honor it.
- Daniel Webster
| The NH Bar Foundation promotes philanthropy dedicated to ensuring that all people in New Hampshire, especially those of limited means, are able to understand and participate fully in the justice system.
The Bar Foundation serves as the unique charitable institution for members of the NH Bar Association and other who wish to make financial gifts in the spirit of "honoring the law."
The Justice Funds Initiative provides the opportunity for law firms to participate in this endeavor by creating a Justice Fund in the firm’s name. These funds can serve as a source of income for an undesignated purpose that helps the Bar Foundation fulfill its mission, or a firm can choose to direct the fund’s proceeds to a concept or entity that reflects the firm’s values.
The NH Bar Foundation has partnered with the NH Charitable Foundation to provide a simple, secure way to honor your legacy.
For more information about the Justice Funds Initiative, please contact John R. Maher, NH Bar Foundation Development Director at 603-498-6399. Or contact Jack B. Middleton, Chair, NH Bar Foundation, at 603- 628-1446.
