With election day next week, is your nonprofit organization aware of recent changes to voting leave requirements? Whether your employees are advance voting or voting on election day, read this article from Jackson Lewis to learn more about how much voting leave employers must provide. The article also addresses the recent extension of the existing Georgia law requirement to allow employees to use available sick leave to care for immediate family members. Reach out to your PBPA attorney if your organization needs to update its Employee Handbook regarding voting or sick leave.
In an era where technology has become an integral part of our daily lives, digital fundraising offers a dynamic and efficient approach for nonprofit organizations.

Nonprofits that integrate these platforms into their fundraising may wonder about the legal implications. Join us in this episode of the PBPA Podcast as William Stone with Morris Manning and Martin provides practical tips and compliance insight for nonprofits fundraising via payment apps.

As a client of Pro Bono Partnership of Atlanta, you know we provide free legal assistance to community-based nonprofits that serve low-income or disadvantaged individuals. We match eligible organizations with volunteer attorneys from the leading corporations and law firms in Atlanta who can assist nonprofits with business law matters. We want to know what’s going on with you. Let us know if you are facing a legal problem or if you have a new project for us. Please don’t contact the volunteer from your last project – please contact your PBPA attorney. We love our volunteers, but all legal requests need to go through PBPA.
Pro Bono Partnership of Atlanta always welcomes new legal matters from our clients.
