About the Canadian Foundation

The Canadian Foundation is dedicated to advancing education by developing and delivering programs that teach law students about maintaining and improving the standards of trial practice, the administration of justice, the delivery of legal services, ethics and professionalism, in order to prepare them for careers as trial lawyers and to support initiatives providing access to justice.

Contributions to the Foundation may be made online through our partnership with CanadaHelps, or by sending a check to the National Office. Thank you for your support of our mission.
