Just because this year’s Pro Bono Week is behind us doesn’t mean that corporate volunteer leaders should shift their attention from pro bono service.  Indeed, this form of employee volunteering has become so effective and popular that, for the first time, a study is underway to standardize reporting and document the value of pro bono service to communities and companies.

Missed Pro Bono week?  Inspired by the American Bar Association’s National Celebration of Pro Bono, Pro Bono Week is a global celebration of the pro bono ethic across all professions that use their talents to make a difference.  Pro bono advocates like Taproot and A Billion Plus Change work with partners around the world to focus attention on the pro bono movement each year during the third week of October.  (Note for next year: get involved!)
