However, over 240,000 people live below the poverty level in our region, and many legal needs go unmet. AppalReD accepts monetary donations to help us provide legal services to those in need. Your contribution is tax deductible to the extent allowed by the law.

AppalReD Legal Aid Society Launched
This September, AppalReD Legal Aid received a generous gift from the estate of Ragan T. Phillips. Remembering AppalReD with a gift in his will ensures that his legacy will mirror his life in its dedication to justice.
Phillips grew up in Lawrenceburg, KY. Later his career took him around the world, before settling in Ashland, VA to be closer to his daughter and grandchildren. There he ran an online newspaper, helped build a local theatre, and was a passionate supporter of education. His wife, Phyllis Thoreaux, is a force for good in her own right and worked with AppalReD founder John Rosenberg and his wife Jean at the Department of Justice in the 1960's.
While we wish we could thank Ragan for his generous spirit in person, we will show him gratitude the best way we can, by stewarding his gift to sustain and grow AppalReD Legal Aid.
Please join Ragan as a founding member of the AppalReD Legal Aid Legacy Society.
