Ways to Give
Volunteer Lawyers Network (VLN) believes in access to justice for all Minnesotans, not just for those who can afford a lawyer. Every day, VLN receives requests for help from Minnesotans who are navigating complex legal issues alone. Our clients include people who are at risk of homelessness due to an eviction on their record, who are seeking divorce from abusive partners, who are starting the long process to get a fresh start in life through US citizenship, who are unable to secure employment due to their record, and more. To fulfill this need in our communities, Volunteer Lawyers Network recruits, trains, and supports thousands of volunteer attorneys, legal staff, and interpreters who are dedicated to providing legal services to our clients completely free of charge.
Your support can be the key to unlocking justice for countless Minnesotans experiencing poverty. By donating to Volunteer Lawyers Network, you become a partner in the fight for equality, fairness, and the protection of basic human rights. Your contribution directly enables us to provide free legal services to those who cannot afford representation, ensuring that justice is an accessible opportunity for all.
