Our Impact in FY22
Our Mission
To ensure meaningful access to the justice system, especially for those with limited means, and to assist lawyers who can no longer care for themselves due to incapacity.
As a philanthropic organization we recognize the importance of the law to ensure access to justice for everyone.
We provide grants to facilitate financial support for life changing programs and to encourage professionals to improve access to justice and advance the rule of law.
About UsThe support we received from the Warren Lupel Lawyers Care Fund came at a time when we needed it most and allowed us to catch up on bills enough to feel like we could see the light at the end of the tunnel. Our family will be forever grateful for the generosity of the Foundation and its wonderful donors. Without you, I'm not sure where our family would be right now but I absolutely know that we would not be thriving as we are now.”Anonymous Warren Lupel Lawyers Care Fund Recipient
