In 2006, the Hispanic Lawyers Association of Illinois created HLAI Charities to formalize and expand its historic commitment to philanthropic pursuits within the community. HLAI Charities now serves as the charitable arm of the Hispanic Lawyers Association of Illinois. Donations to HLAI Charities are used for the awarding of  scholarships to law students to prepare for the Bar Examination,  to deserving college students for their LSAT preparation and to a law student spending their summer at a government or non for profit office.

For more information about HLAI Charities, please contact HLAI Charities President Cesar Orozco at charities@hlai.org and list HLAI Charities on the subject line.
