The Hennepin County
Bar Foundation was founded in 1968, with the express
purpose of providing financial assistance to individuals,
organizations and projects that are related to the law and
the legal system.
The Foundation is a
charitable corporation that derives virtually all of its
undedicated funds from contributions of individual lawyers
who are members of the Hennepin County Bar Association (HCBA).
Historically, the
Bar Foundation has supported programs that:
(1) provide legal
services to individuals of limited resources
(2) educate the
public about the legal system; and
(3) contribute to the improvement of
the legal system and the administration of justice.
The
MISSION of the Hennepin County Bar Foundation Is to
Achieve Equal Justice for All Citizens of Hennepin County
by:
IMPROVING the Administration
of Justice
INCREASING PUBLIC understanding of the Law
FACILITATING Delivery of Legal Services.
