PRO BONO

Alfaro-Abogados is an international organization of independent offices with a long-term commitment to serve the needs of institutions that provide assistance and funds to individuals or organizations that promote entrepreneurship, investment in education and health as well as cultural and religious integration, as a way to improve the social conditions, health or education of communities in Latin America and encourage social responsibility.

We carefully select the institutions that better adapt to these goals: education, health care, micro financing for entrepreneurship, social responsibility and study abroad programs.

In addition to support these institutions with legal services we help them to generate funding from banks, funds and individuals in Argentina and abroad.
