Raising the Bar Campaign

Raising the Bar is the Philadelphia legal community’s most significant institutional effort in support of the Bar Foundation and our network of non-profit legal service providers. More than 100 local law firms participate annually, and their pledges since 2006 have totaled more than $4 million.

The campaign was inspired by former Bar Association Chancellor Alan M. Feldman, who challenged every law firm, large and small, to contribute $300 per lawyer. Raising the Bar continues today as a highly successful joint initiative of the Bar Association and Bar Foundation.

There are three ways for Philadelphia law firms and individual lawyers to contribute to Raising the Bar:

  • Make a direct donation to the Philadelphia Bar Foundation
  • Make a direct donation to any of the Philadelphia public interest law agencies supported by the Bar Foundation
  • Make a donation to the Bar Foundation with a “donor option” to any of the Philadelphia public interest law agencies supported by the Bar Foundation.
For more information, contact Lynne Brown at the Philadelphia Bar Foundation or by calling 215-238-6347.
