One of the greatest organizations in Ohio is the Ohio State Bar Foundation.  I was honored to be asked to be a member in 2005 after winning an award for community service.  The message below is from their web site which you can access at www.osbf.net.

Membership in the Foundation is an honor extended only to lawyers whose careers have demonstrated their dedication to the highest ideals of the legal profession and the welfare of their community. Outstanding individuals from around the state are invited each year to become part of this select group.

Each year's Fellows Class meets several times during its members' first 12-14 months in the Foundation, to learn more about the Foundation and its mission of promoting public understanding of the law and improvements in the justice system throughout Ohio. New members also collaborate on a Fellows Class project that furthers the Foundation's mission
