We foment ProBono culture through the bonding of the legal community in the following events
The Futsal Cup
It’s an indoor soccer tournament organized by Fundación ProBono Colombia in which participate firms that are in their network.
It’s an opportunity to participate, have fun and bond, sharing the best teams from other firms and companies that support the ProBono cause.
Rock & Law
It’s an event organized by Fundación ProBono Colombia, in which participate the law firms that are part of its network.
Through the years, it has constituted itself as the main space of inclusion in the legal community committed to social responsibility.
It’s the perfect excuse to celebrate amidst rock music the hard work done throughout the year to help the most vulnerable access justice.
