Sponsorship Opportunities
As Legal Services of New Jersey (LSNJ) commemorates 55 years of anti-poverty advocacy and providing civil legal assistance to the state’s most vulnerable, low-income residents, we invite you to join in an opportunity to sponsor social and equal justice events and efforts across our state. There are several exciting opportunities to provide equal access to justice to all New Jerseyans this year as we commemorate this important milestone. Your support can be part of our year-round programming—as a Campaign for Justice Sponsor at the Equal Justice Champion or Equal Justice Advocate level—or as a sponsor at one or more of the upcoming events.

Melville "De" Miller, Jr. Memorial Fund
Melville “De” Miller, Jr., Co-Founder and President of Legal Services of New Jersey from 1972 to 2020, died March 1, 2021. The Melville “De” Miller, Jr. Memorial Fund has been established to honor his commitment to equal access to justice for all and to abolishing racial and social injustice. Donations to the fund will help to underwrite a fellowship for newly admitted attorneys interested in public interest work. Initially, the fund will have a particular emphasis on challenging inherit biases in the child welfare system. De believed that the current system must treat conditions of poverty with individualized services and benefits and eliminate the risk of separation that poor children and families currently face solely because they are poor.
Make a donation to the Melville "De" Miller, Jr. Memorial Fund. Learn more about De's important legacy.
