Field Law is excited to launch their 2015 Field Law Community Fund Program, and LESA is glad to help them spread the word. This is the program’s third year, and there are two ways for you to get involved.
Know of a Worthy Cause?
The program supports local pay-it-forward ideas and causes within the communities that Field Law serves. In celebration of the firm’s 100th anniversary, $100,000 will be donated across Alberta and the Northwest Territories in 2015.
“2015 marks our 100th anniversary, and we couldn’t be more excited to use this opportunity to give back to our communities,” says Jim Casey QC, a Field Law Managing Partner. “After seeing the success of the program during its first two years we feel like we have strengthened connections with our communities that will take the third year of the program to new heights.”
Are you involved with, or do you know of, any deserving ideas in need of funding? Local individuals, initiatives, and causes must apply for funding before May 11, 2015.
Field Law’s preferred (but not exclusive) causes are those that support education, healthcare, at-risk youth, the homeless, women’s organizations, community and sports, or arts and culture.
Help Choose the Finalist!
Finalists are chosen through a combination of community (public) online voting and deliberation by a Community Market Judging Panel. Field Law is looking for interested individuals to serve on the Judging Panel. If you’d like to be involved, contact Stephanie Quaife at [email protected].
If you’re involved with an initiative that gives back to the community and you’d like LESA’s help promoting your cause, please contact Renee Vander Meulen, Communications Coordinator.
