Why Donate to Lawyers for Good Government (L4GG)?
WHEN YOU DONATE TO LAWYERS FOR GOOD GOVERNMENT (L4GG), YOU ARE HELPING TO:
-Help Small Businesses in North Carolina recover from Hurricane Helene. As of October 2024, L4GG is launching a small business legal clinic in North Carolina to help them recover from the devastation brought from Hurricane Helene. Our clinic offers pro bono support to impacted small businesses in Western North Carolina on issues such as commercial real estate, landlord/tenant, bankruptcy, insurance, labor and employment, contracts, accessing FEMA loans and other available funds, and more.
-Protecting Ukrainian Nationals in the US. L4GG provides legal assistance in applying for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Ukrainian Nationals in the US. TPS is a form of immigration relief offered to foreign nationals in the United States whose home countries are considered unsafe, and provides the right to live and work in the United States for a temporary period. The clinic mobilizes a community of hundreds of lawyers, law firms, and in-house legal teams across the country to do this work.
-Save Lives. Through Project Corazon, L4GG provides free legal assistance to thousands of asylum seekers at the border, helping them find safety in the United States. We focus specifically on asylum seekers who are particularly vulnerable due to disabilities, severe medical issues requiring immediate attention, pregnancy, and/or LGBTQ status.
-Fight for Racial Justice. L4GG’s Lawyers for Racial Justice program conducts ongoing research and develops model policies to identify and directly address ways in which the government is perpetuating systemic racism. Current issue areas of focus include child agricultural labor, police in schools, voting rights, and expungement.
-Fight Global Warming. L4GG’s Climate Change program tackles the causes and effects of climate change by providing legal resources and services to states, local governments, NGOs, and frontline communities to expedite the country’s just transition to a green economy and to directly address environmental racism.
For every dollar you donate, we are able to mobilize 5-10x that amount in pro bono legal services.
