Options for lawyers in a charitable mood on Giving Tuesday

The Illinois Bar Foundation is making a special Giving Tuesday push for money to support its work "ensuring equal access to justice across the state and providing aid to attorneys in need."

Persons donating to IBF via the organization's Facebook page may have their gifts matched by "Meta" (Facebook's new corporate face) until Meta shells out $8 million matching donations to the IBF and who knows how many other charities that have signed up for this program (Mr. Zuckerberg must be skipping lunch today).

The Lawyers' Assistance Program also has a special Giving Tuesday pitch. Here's a link to the LAP donation page. LAP offers this graphic showing exactly how your donations can translate into specific services:

Also, the Diversity Scholarship Foundation Unity Gala and Awards Ceremony is tonight (the virtual reception starts at 5:00 p.m.) Tickets may still be obtained at this link.
