As part of National Pro Bono Week, The Pro Bono Project is honoring some of the incredible volunteers, supporters, and partners who make our work possible.

Today, we spotlight Rosalind Young, who was honored last week as the 2026 Outstanding New Volunteer.

Each year, this award recognizes a volunteer who is new to The Pro Bono Project but has already demonstrated an exceptional commitment to our mission. Roz is a wonderful example of exactly that.

Since joining our volunteer team, Roz has jumped right in, generously sharing her time and legal expertise across several of our programs. She has volunteered at our Self-Help Resource Center, participated in wills clinics, and assisted with our divorce workshops, helping individuals and families navigate important legal matters that can have a lasting impact on their lives.

What makes Roz especially deserving of this recognition is her willingness to get involved in so many different aspects of our work. Whether helping someone understand the court process, assisting a family with estate planning, or guiding individuals through the steps of an uncontested divorce, Roz has embraced the opportunities to make a difference.

Building a strong volunteer program depends on attorneys who are willing to step forward, try new things, and make pro bono service a meaningful part of their professional lives. Roz has done just that, and her enthusiasm, professionalism, and commitment to helping others have already made her a valued member of The Pro Bono Project family.

We are so grateful that Roz chose to share her time and talents with us, and we look forward to working with her for many years to come. Thank you, Roz!

As part of National Pro Bono Week, The Pro Bono Project is honoring some of the incredible volunteers, supporters, and partners who make our work possible.

Today, we are spotlighting Sarah Manowitz, who was honored last week as 2026's Outstanding Paralegal of the Year.

Sarah is a wonderful example of someone who goes above and beyond in her commitment to pro bono service. While balancing the demands of working as a full-time paralegal and attending law school, she still finds time to generously share her skills and talents with The Pro Bono Project
Sarah has supported our work in a variety of ways, including serving as a curator in legal proceedings, recruiting volunteers at her firm, and volunteering at our Self-Help Resource Center, and participating in community legal clinics.

Whether helping individuals navigate the court system or assisting with cases that require additional time and attention, Sarah consistently steps forward wherever she is needed.

What makes Sarah especially impressive is her willingness to take on so many different responsibilities while continuing her legal education. Her professionalism, enthusiasm, and genuine desire to help others reflect the very best of what we hope to see in the next generation of legal professionals. Thank you, Sarah!

As part of National Pro Bono Week, The Pro Bono Project is honoring some of the incredible volunteers, supporters, and partners who make our work possible.

Today, we are spotlighting Robert Lester, who was honored last week as 2026's Outstanding Law Student of the Year.

Robert started with The Pro Bono Project as a part of Loyola University New Orleans College of Law's Gillis Long Program. While balancing the demands of law school, Robert has generously shared his time and talents with The Pro Bono Project, supporting our clients, staff, and programs with professionalism, enthusiasm, and a willingness to help wherever needed. He has become a valued member of our volunteer team, consistently demonstrating initiative, reliability, and a genuine commitment to helping others.

But what makes Robert particularly special is that he hasn't stopped at volunteering his own time. He has also taken the initiative to recruit and encourage other law students to get involved with The Pro Bono Project, helping us introduce a new generation of future attorneys to the importance of pro bono service. That kind of enthusiasm and leadership is exactly what we hope to inspire in our student volunteers.

Robert understands that pro bono service is not simply something to do while in law school, but a professional responsibility and a commitment that can carry throughout an attorney's career. His dedication is a wonderful reminder of the important role law students play in our work, both through the services they provide today and the culture of service they help build for tomorrow.
