Projects on CHOOSE YOUR PRO BONO will be "public" by default. This means that all visitors to the website are able to view your project listing. One advantage of making a project "public" is that the CHOOSE YOUR PRO BONO can share your project on social media to help find you more volunteers. Projects that are “private,” on the other hand, are visible only to those sent information about the project through a live Internet link. If you wish to make your project "private", please check the box below.
