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.
WORKING

TO IMPROVE
THE LIVES
OF ALL
ONTARIANS
"We applaud these great
organizations which help people
understand the law and use it
to improve their lives. This campaign
is a way for the legal community
to support the work of these
exceptional organizations, and
draw attention to the crisis
in access to justice."
