About

Globalaw Foundation 

The Globalaw Foundation gives back to communities and organizations in need, with a focus on legal education and access to justice.

The directors of the Globalaw Foundation include former Globalaw presidents, Executive Committee members and previous participants in the Globalaw Leadership Programme that come from Globalaw member firms worldwide. The Foundation, in the spirit of Globalaw, does not confine itself to any geographic area and carries out its activities across the world. The Globalaw Foundation is funded through a combination of donations from Globalaw member Firms, and funds raised at events hosted and supported by Globalaw.

In 1991, six Wall Street professionals established Minds Matter in New York City to mentor high-achieving, low-income high school students who had the potential and ambition to pursue a college education, but who lacked the resources to achieve that dream. Since then, Minds Matter has grown into a national organization with fourteen chapters across the United States in Boston, Chicago, Cleveland, Denver, Detroit, Houston, Los Angeles, New York City, Philadelphia, Portland, San Francisco, the Twin Cities, Seattle, and Washington, D.C. The organization’s services have developed into a holistic three-year curriculum for high school sophomores, juniors and seniors. Each year students are guided through valuable lessons in Academic Preparedness, Writing & Critical Thinking, and SAT Preparation.
