LOW COUNTRY LEGAL VOLUNTEERS

Description

Keri Jordan Olivetti founded Lowcountry Legal Volunteers in August 1998 when she realized that many in our community lacked access to necessary legal services. Lowcountry Legal Volunteers opened its doors in August 2000 with an initial grant from the Hilton Head Island Foundation.

Lowcountry Legal Volunteers is a grassroots organization funded entirely by individual donations and grants from local religious institutions, community foundations, charitable organizations, and businesses. We receive no state or federal government funds. We have a small but dedicated paid staff of four, but what really makes our organization successful are the talents and hard work of our many volunteers. We couldn't do the work we do without them.
