About Calgary Legal Guidance Society

Overview

Calgary Legal Guidance Society (CLG) provides legal assistance to low-income clients through free community clinics, offering advice on a variety of legal topics including Criminal, Civil, Landlord/Tenant, Employment, Family, Elder, and Immigration Law. In addition to the clinics, CLG's legal services team provides representation to clients in programs such as Family Law, Homeless Outreach, Immigration Law, Elder Law, Social Benefits Advocacy, and Indigenous Student support. The organization also offers Public Legal Education presentations to the general public and website resources. CLG aims to bridge the gap between Indigenous peoples, the legal profession, and the legal system by employing an Indigenous student-at-law to assist Indigenous clients.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about getting started

WellFunded eliminates the inefficiencies, inequities and ineffectiveness of traditional fundraising by centralizing and standardizing the process. Instead of spending time on endless grant applications, you create a single, detailed profile that philanthropists and foundations can easily discover and fund. Our other tools like our centralized due diligence tool and "2 click grants" (coming soon) build off of this core concept: that we can make things radically better by centralizing them on one common platform.

Philanthropists can browse charity profiles, see your funding needs, and express interest directly—saving you countless hours. We are soon rolling out a "two click granting" tool where donors can set their granting preferences and if your charity matches their preferences, you will automatically be notified in your dashboard, and can send your portrait onward right through to their WellFunded dashboard. Sort of like applying to a job through LinkedIn Easy Apply.

WellFunded charges philanthropists presently. For charities, WellFunded offers a free tier, with plans for affordable paid options that provide enhanced visibility and engagement tools. However, we will always have a free tier. We will introduce pricing once enough active donors use the platform to influence giving.

Instead of relying on cold proposals or personal networks, WellFunded helps you get in front of philanthropists actively looking to give in your area of impact. With advanced search tools and standardized due diligence, your work speaks for itself—helping you build trust and attract new donors.

Charity profiles include leadership information, financial data, and clear funding needs. Philanthropists can also see impact reports and follow the giving activity of other donors, creating a more open and transparent ecosystem.

Yes. WellFunded prioritizes data security and does not sell or share your private information outside the platform.
