ABA
RPPT B-4 Pro Bono Committee Seeking Additional
Members!
The
ABA RPPT B-4 Pro Bono Committee is a
new committee established this year. Its basis
was the Community Responsive Pro Bono Practice
Subcommittee (B-1), established in 1999, which
initiated and managed the Section's project
with Habitat for Humanity. The project has been
very successful providing the services of hundreds
of Section volunteers to HFH affiliates throughout
the United States. The new Pro Bono Committee,
while continuing to coordinate the HFH project,
has been asked and is ready to take on new challenges
such as community education on real estate issues
including predatory lending and landlord-tenant
relationships, becoming involved with community
projects with real estate concerns such as People
Advocating Therapeutic Homes, Inc.(PATH) and
contributing from a real estate perspective
to civic programs benefitting our communities.
Please bring your ideas and energy for community
service to the Section's Pro Bono Committee!
If you would like to volunteer to work with
the Committee's Habitat for Humanity project
please complete and return the form on
the B-4 Pro Bono Committee website where
you can also find the Committee's mission statement.
If you would like to become a B-4 Pro Bono
Committee member to work on other real estate
related projects please contact Carol Ann
Martinelli, Chairperson at cmart26@attglobal.net.
Thank you!
