And justice for all: campaign to strengthen the foundations of local justice

The Columbus Bar Foundation’s current campaign, under the leadership of Jack Chester and Ben Zox, has proven to be a landmark event in the history of the Foundation. Not only has the campaign raised gifts and pledges in excess of $3.6 million, by far the Foundation’s most successful initiative ever, but the campaign has broadened the Foundation’s base of support and raised its visibility within the community. The campaign will close at the year’s end.

A Pillars of Giving Wall outside the large conference room will recognize donors who have pledged $5,000 or more. All donors will be recognized in the campaign’s final report.

The Columbus Bar Foundation would like to thank all who have donated to the Capital Campaign. Donors who have pledged leadership gifts of $5,000 or more are:
