We were classified as providing an essential service by the Ministry of Trade & Industry during the circuit breaker and worked harder than ever to ensure that our access to justice programmes run seamlessly despite the COVID 19 situation. We successfully moved our legal clinics and legal aid application processes online with significant effort and continue to conduct pro bono criminal defence in Court.

We even surpassed our previous performance by hosting 30 webinars from 1 April 2020 to 10 September 2020 with a total outreach of 5675 as compared to 1967 over the same period last year. We are addressing new access to justice gaps by creating timely webinar content for individuals and organisations significantly impacted by COVID 19. Please refer to our YouTube Channel using URL ProBonoServices for some of our webinars.

We are striving to serve the needy and vulnerable in the midst of a pandemic. But we cannot do it without you. Your generosity will be matched dollar for dollar 40 per cent and 60 per cent by the Tote Board and the Government respectively and will go towards our existing programmes and funding additional initiatives that support those significantly affected by COVID 19, including members of the public, migrant workers, charities and freelancers.

This campaign is a duplicate of our COVID-19 Access to Justice Response which expired on 24 October 2020 after raising over $10k on giving.sg.
