ABOUT THE JUNIOR FELLOWS SOCIETY
"The Junior Fellows Society provides a
unique opportunity to be at the forefront of
the work needed to help make a difference
in improving the delivery of legal services.”
Bryan Conley, WimerHale
A True
Community
Members of the Junior Fellows Society
come together to hear from guest
speakers, attend networking and social
events and volunteer for community
service projects.
Junior Fellows are an important part of
the BBF’s Society of Fellows. When
you pledge to become a member, you
join a community of nearly 400 attorneys
who are committed to investing in our
city’s future.
Because of the
Society of Fellows,
we have been able to
dedicate:
The Boston Bar Foundation’s Junior Fellows Society is a special charitable giving initiative involving lawyers within the first ten years of their careers, who are committed to supporting the BBF’s work and making a difference in the lives of those in our community.
With an annual gift of $250 per year for 4 years, Junior Fellows Society members establish themselves as true leaders of the Boston legal community. Their generosity ensures that the BBF will always be there to expand access to legal help for individuals and families with nowhere to turn, provide educational and career opportunities for young people and engage lawyers in projects to help those in need.
Thousands of individuals and families depend on the programs supported by the Boston Bar Foundation. In order to sustain this support, we depend on a foundation of dedicated and compassionate supporters. Through your pledge, you will not only keep this vital work moving forward, you will also inspire others to join us and help others in their greatest times of need.

"I admire the work of the Boston Bar
Foundation and the tangible, positive
impact of the Foundation in the lives of
those who most need its help.”
Kimberly Butler-Rainen , Tamkin & Hochberg, LLPBRINGING HOPE AND HELP TO THOSE
IN NEED
We believe every individual that needs to
turn to the justice system should be able
to fine the help they need.
Access to justice is more than a noble aspiration, it
means working each day to ensure adequate
funding for civil legal services for those in need, to
improve the effectiveness of our court system, and
to provide help to low-income, underserved or
special-needs populations.
We invest in organizations and projects that help
people learn their legal rights, leverage the strength
of volunteers to provide assistance, and make a
true difference in the lives of those facing problems
relating to immigration, domestic violence,
homelessness and more. In 2014, the BBF made
$825,500 in grants to 23 organizations.
WORKING
TOGETHER
TO SPARK
CHANGE
IN OUR CITY
We support the programs of the Boston Bar
Association that focus on educating and expanding
opportunities for Boston students, engaging private
attorneys in pro bono service and responding to
needs in our community. In 2014, we:
• Funded jobs for 14 Boston Public School students in
the BBA’sSummer Jobs program, introducing diverse students to the legal field and giving them the tools they need to succeed professionally.
• Helped teenagers learn to make smart choices about
credit and finance through support of the M. Ellen Carpenter Financial Literacy Program.
• Responded to critical needs in our justice system
through support of the BBA Lawyer for the Day in the Boston Housing Court Program, helping to serve thousands of low-income tenants and landlords seeking relief at Boston Housing Court.
• Provided Boston Public Schools with the Law Day in
the Schools Program, helping to educate students in first grade through high school about our justice system.
