Support Our Work Expanding Access to Justice Throughout Maine
VLP is a small, well-established 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with an outsized impact. We depend on the generosity and financial support of individuals and businesses who are passionate about access to justice.
Your gift will go directly to providing legal help to someone desperately in need of assistance with a family law, employment, probate, or other civil legal problem.
By efficiently recruiting, coordinating, and deploying scores of attorney and community volunteers, VLP multiplies the value of revenues received by almost three times in terms of the value of legal services provided.
