Legal Aid Society Announces Chair of the 2024 Justice For All Campaign
Aaron Marcus, Partner at Dentons, has been named Chair of Legal Aid Society’s annual Justice for All Campaign. Aaron, also a member of our Board of Directors, will lead our campaign committee as we raise critical unrestricted resources to advance our mission of “pursuing justice for people in poverty.”
The goal of the 2024 Justice for All Campaign is $600,000. All funds raised will support civil legal advocacy in Legal AId’s fifteen-county service area. With many of Legal Aid’s resources tied to grants and government restrictions, the Justice for All Campaign provides the flexibility to meet changing community needs and rising crises.
Aaron steps into the role previously filled by Carole Christian (Wyatt, Tarrant & Combs) and Bryan Hudson (Atria Senior Living). Together with the entire Justice for All Campaign committee, Carole and Bryan raised $578,000 in 2023 to support our work and expansion into regional offices in Shelby County and West Louisville.
