Over fifty years ago, a handful of
visionary leaders founded the Illinois Bar Foundation. Their initial
commitment was to provide aid to deserving members of the Illinois Bar
who, because of age or infirmity, could no longer provide for their own
care or support. Since then, the Foundation has expanded its scope to
provide legal services for Illinois families, as well as facilitate and
encourage the development of the legal profession within the State.
