Practising Law Institute's pro bono activities reflect its deep commitment to the public service work of the legal profession. In 2012, PLI awarded over 26,000 scholarships.

public interest groups, law firms, corporations, nonprofit organizations, and foundations, ways in
which PLI's programs and services may be used to further the pro bono work of lawyers and related professionals.
