The One-Hour Challenge.

Give

THE CAMPAIGN for Legal Services relies on donations from a variety of sources.  Still, current giving fails to meet the need of all who seek our help each year.  That's why we've challenged each resident in Silicon Valley to donate an amount equal to a minimum of one hour of his or her wage or billable time.  By making this baseline investment, you can become part of our mission to ensure that all residents, regardless of income, can find solutions to their civil legal problems. I'm ready to contribute now.

Ensuring basic legal rights to education, housing and healthcare strengthens families, promotes better education for our children, and keeps seniors healthy and independent.  Too often, individuals who qualify for benefits, such as those with HIV/AIDS or mental illness, need legal assistance to secure the help they are supposed to receive.  Your contribution to their stability means our community functions better, and that benefits all of us.
