The Louisiana Bar Foundation Gala is celebrating 40 years!
For four decades, the Louisiana Bar Foundation (LBF) has worked to ensure that every Louisianan has meaningful access to the justice system while becoming the largest state funder of free civil legal aid. Through a trusted network of more than 70 partner organizations, the Foundation helps families and individuals navigate civil legal challenges related to housing, family law, consumer protection, public benefits, and more. Together, we are closing the gap in access to justice and transforming lives across Louisiana.
The 40th Anniversary Gala will commemorate this extraordinary milestone by honoring both the visionaries who built the Foundation’s enduring legacy and the distinguished honorees carrying that legacy forward in 2026. The evening will bring together hundreds of Fellows, attorneys, judges, law professors, and community leaders from across the state for an inspiring night of recognition, reflection, and celebration.
Should you have any questions or require additional information, please contact the Louisiana Bar Foundation at (504) 561-1046.
