Congratulations to Kalamazoo attorney Leo Goddeyne, who has been named the recipient of Michigan Community Resources' Pro Bono Partner Brick Award. The award honors pro bono partners who have meaningfully contributed to MCR's mission of building strong nonprofits.

Focusing on serving low-income communities in West Michigan and statewide, Goddeyne works with the Kalamazoo Bar Association and Legal Aid of Western Michigan in organizing pro bono outreach and facilitating the efficient delivery of services and involvement by private attorneys.

Goddeyne was recognized in 2016 by the State Bar of Michigan, which awarded him the prestigious John W. Cummiskey Pro Bono Award, given annually to a member of the Michigan Bar for outstanding contributions in the pro bono arena.

"There are few attorneys more committed to pro bono service than Leo," said Miller Canfield CEO Michael McGee.
