“To hold an intention, an idea and see it come to life is a wonderful thing. As the Irish poet John O’Donohue said facts are the children of possibility and, when I look back at 20 years of Pro Bono Australia, I find this is true.
Pro Bono Australia has often been ahead of the game – sometimes too far ahead, which is a lesson in itself. But there’s no doubt that with many initiatives our timing has been right.
Our task then and now is to support an engaged and valued civil society.
Onward!
