MEMBERS of the LEGAL AID SOCIETY
Legal Aid Society relies on our members to ensure Kentuckians have access to justice. The need for civil legal aid far outpaces the resources to support it. With over 170,000 Kentuckians in Legal Aid’s fifteen-county service area estimated to be eligible for services and in need, every dollar or hour donated is critical to closing the justice gap.
Thank you to our members, those who donated to our 2023 Justice for All Campaign or our 2024 campaign, supported our Journey to Justice event, or made a restricted gift or grant to one of our many programs, or volunteered to service clients through our Volunteer Lawyer Program.
