A NOTE FROM TEE LEGAL

ADVOCACY DOESN'T END AT THE COURTROOM DOOR

Much of our work begins in the hardest moments of a person’s life. That shapes more than the way we practise law — it shapes what we believe we owe the communities we serve. Tee Legal is proud to support organisations doing extraordinary work for people who need it most — for children in hospital, for families facing cancer, for communities without clean water, and for people who simply need someone in their corner. We encourage our clients, colleagues and friends to learn about these causes, and to give if they can.

CHARITIES WE SUPPORT

Dreamspire Foundation

An Australian charity funding essential therapy and support services for people facing financial hardship, and promoting genuine social inclusion. Dreamspire’s board members all serve as volunteers, and 100% of donations go directly to the people it supports.

WaterAid Australia

WaterAid brings clean water, decent toilets and good hygiene to communities around the world. Nearly one in ten people worldwide still live without clean water close to home. WaterAid exists to change that — for good.

Sydney Children’s Hospitals Foundation

One of Australia’s largest and most trusted children’s health charities, raising funds for world-class care, equipment and research across the Sydney Children’s Hospitals Network — including The Children’s Hospital at Westmead, Sydney Children’s Hospital, Randwick and Bear Cottage.

Cancer Council

Australia’s leading cancer charity, working across research, prevention and support. From millions invested in research every year to the 13 11 20 information and support line, Cancer Council stands beside everyone affected by cancer — patients, carers and families.

Donations made through the links on this page go directly to each organisation. Tee Legal does not collect or handle donations on their behalf.
