Episcopal Legal Aid will be holding a Giving Tuesday Virtual Fundraising Event on Tuesday, December 1, 2020 at 6:00 PM.

The guest speaker will be Tobey Oxholm, the Executive Director of Philadelphia Lawyers for Social Equity, which helps low-income Philadelphians clean up their criminal records, and is leading the statewide efforts to reform the pardon process.  He is serving in this position following long careers in law and higher education.

Tobey has received many awards for helping to ensure that everyone has access to justice, regardless of their ability to pay.  He will offer reflections about pro bono and public interest legal service, as well as timely remarks about why everyone should personally support those efforts, especially in these challenging times.  You will have the opportunity to ask questions and interact with Tobey. 

The event is free. This video Annual Report on the ELA home page offers an overview of the work of Episcopal Legal Aid.
