Bay Area Legal Receives $500,000 Gift to Establish New Endowment

Bay Area Legal Services has received a $500,000 pledge from an anonymous donor to establish the Richard C. Woltmann Endowment Fund. The gift honors Richard ‘Dick’ Woltmann’s 43-year tenure as president & CEO of Bay Area Legal Services.

The donor also set forth a challenge for Bay Area Legal Services to collectively raise $167,000 toward the endowment, to which the donor will match on a 3-to-1 basis. This pledge represents the largest gift Bay Area Legal has ever received from a single donor.

For more information, see the The Florida Bar's article.

Thank you for your past support, and especially now, for keeping Dick’s vision and hard work alive through your commitment to Dick’s endowment.
