International Society of Barristers Foundation Donates $10,000 to Legal Services V.I.

Richard Austin receives check from International Society of Barristers for Legal Services of the Virgin Islands

The International Society of Barristers Foundation (ISOB) has agreed to make a donation of $10,000 to Legal Services of the Virgin Islands to support that group’s work in providing legal services to the U.S. Virgin Islands in the aftermath of hurricanes Irma and Maria.

The ISOB Foundation is a 501(c) (3) charitable organization founded by the ISOB and dedicated to preserving the right to trial by jury, the adversary system, and a free and independent judiciary.

Several members of the V.I. Bar are members of ISOB, and that group reached out to the V.I. to seek an appropriate way to assist with meeting the territory’s challenges created by the disasters. This generous gift to Legal Services of the Virgin Islands Inc. resulted from that outreach.  The V.I. members of the ISOB thank the ISOB Foundation for this contribution to their community’s recovery, and they thank the Virgin Islands Legal Services for its dedicated work.
