Kelley Drye Participates in Fund Raising for Legal Aid’s 2009 Generous Associates Campaign

Kelley Drye’s Washington, D.C. office raised over $14,000 for the 2009 Generous Associates Campaign, benefiting the Legal Aid Society of the District of Columbia. With a total contribu­tion of $14,021, Kelley Drye ranked fourth in contributions among par­ticipating firms of its size. Organized by associates throughout the district, the fundraiser ensures that Legal Aid can continue to provide free legal services to those in need in the D.C. community in the areas of family law, housing and public benefits.

Formed in 1932, the Legal Aid Society of the District of Columbia provides civil legal aid to individu­als, families and communities in the District who could not otherwise afford to hire lawyers.
