Can volunteer work done over the summer qualify as pro bono?
Pro bono work completed over the summer will qualify for the Pro Bono Challenge if it is done in addition to any work normally required by the student’s summer employer and the student is uncompensated during the period the work is performed. Examples of qualifying pro bono work include: working for a public service employer beyond the hours required by your PILA grant; volunteering for another organization after completing your required hours with your first employer; or volunteering to work with a law firm on a pro bono case that was not assigned as part of your compensated summer work.
