Pro Bono Resource Fair

     

    This year, for Pro Bono Week, Taproot Foundation will partner once again with the Foundation Center to host a Pro Bono Resource Fair on October 29th from 1pm-4pm. This is a special program for Bay Area nonprofits, pro bono providers, and corporations designed to introduce attendees to the wealth of pro bono resources in our region. Nonprofit organizations will be able to visit provider booths to learn more about their pro bono programs. Providers will be able to promote their services and connect with nonprofits and other mission based organizations. Companies that are new to pro bono will have the opportunity to learn from their more seasoned counterparts. And everyone will be empowered to offer or source high quality pro bono services. 

    Simultaneously during the Resource Fair, Taproot will host small-group, moderated “pop up discussions” on topics such as: 

    • To Pro Bono or Not to Pro Bono: When and how to consider your talent as you consider your CSR strategy 

    • Translating Tech Talent to Meet Nonprofit Needs 

    • Empowered or Depowered by Pro Bono: Nonprofits share what worked and what didn’t work when utilizing pro bono resources  

    • Hacking the Hackathon: Reimagining short-term, high-impact models of engagement 


    This program is taking place during Pro Bono Week, a global celebration of the pro bono ethic across all professions that use their talents to make a difference. Inspired by the American Bar Association, Taproot works with partners around the globe to focus attention on the pro bono movement each year during the last week of October. 

     

    If you are a pro bono provider and would like to have a booth at the Fair, please contact Lauren Merker at lauren@taprootfoundation.org
