Giving Back

We’re fortunate for so many reasons. But there are others out there less well off than ourselves both near and abroad.

Giving back is Corrs' social responsibility program. We have set up this program to allow our staff to contribute and make a difference to the broader community.

Our Giving Back program includes:

Pro Bono Legal Service – Corrs provides legal service for disadvantaged individuals and groups as well as for charitable and not-for-profit organisations.

Secondments – In 2008 Corrs introduced pro bono as a rotation in our graduate program. During each rotation, one graduate from each state joins the team of an independent, not-for-profit legal referral service, providing them with an ongoing and reliable resource without dipping into their limited funds. Organisations include the Public Interest Clearing House (PILCH).

Workplace Giving – Corrs’ Workplace Giving program allows our staff to make charitable donations to help charities raise much needed funds. Donations are made by staff monthly from their pre-tax pay.
