Volunteer Spotlight: Folarin Dosunmu, GE Aviation
Folarin is our 2017 Corporate Attorney of the Year and we recognized his great service to PBPO at our Volunteer Appreciation event last month. Folarin is a recent transplant to Cincinnati from Chicago, and jumped right in to assist PBPO and our clients. In the past two years, he volunteered for 12 different projects and participated in 2 Nonprofit Legal Check Ups.
Why does Folarin volunteer with PBPO?
“Everyone deserves access to the law – no matter their financial situation. PBPO and the respective NPOs are vehicles to provide such services and aid to the community. It is my responsibility to help as many people as possible.”
