A Section 501(c)(3) organization which is exempt from payment of income taxes, the Foundation was established in 1994 with the stated purpose of “accumulating sufficient funds to be used for the betterment and good of our community.” Its mission is to support programs that improve the legal system, the administration of justice and otherwise promote the betterment of the legal profession and local community. . The primary sources of funds for the Foundation are the annual membership donations paid by members of the Mobile Bar Association.
