Thanks to the support of our CBA Members, we have been able to support a number of charitable organizations this year. We are pleased to share a few of these good deeds that our members have made possible:
Jay Headrick (President, CBA) and Gord Sterchi (VP, CBA) present a donation to LEAD Alberta on behalf of CBA members.
In Oct 2021, the CBA was pleased to present a donation of $5,000.00 to LEAD Alberta (Lawyers for Equity, Access and Diversity) in support of their Iris Barry Yake Robe Bank at the Calgary Courthouse. The donation will be used to purchase dickies and other items for the Robe Bank.
