A special thank you to Judge Dan Polster for naming Legal Aid as the recipient of the Elaine R. "Boots" Fisher award grant.
The Elaine R. “Boots” Fisher Award was established as a memorial to honor the outstanding and generous contributions made by “Boots” Fisher to improve the quality of life and opportunities for all persons. The award is intended to stimulate, encourage, and recognize exemplary community, public, and charitable service by Federal Bar Association (FBA) members. This year’s honoree fully embodies the personal achievements that serve to provide inspiration and hope to others as well as a steadfast approach to far-reaching community, public, and charitable actions.
