Each year, the Law Foundation of Ontario awards millions of dollars it receives from the interest on mixed trust accounts and cy-près awards to many carefully selected grantees, including both new and long-standing partners. Through the work of our grantees, and through funds paid to Legal Aid Ontario, the LFO advances its vision for a truly accessible justice system. Since its creation in 1974, the LFO has given out over $230 million in grants and over $675 million to Legal Aid Ontario. The LFO is proud to act as a Presenting Partner for Flip Your Wig for Justice. This innovative initiative by some of the Foundation's leading partners is a fine example of how we must all work together to increase access to justice for the people of Ontario.
