Downstreem Pro Bono Program
When people think of businesses offering Pro Bono work, they often think of law firms and business consultants. However, the truth is that small businesses such as ours, can offer their services to deserving people and groups. We believe that technology should benefit all and we are committed to using our knowledge and expertise to help people.
Every day, many income-insecure people face legal problems and are not able to retain an attorney or even have a basic knowledge of their rights. We would like to help in a small way to make the legal system fairer, by offering our digital forensic resources to aid in legal proceedings.
The DOWNSTREEM PRO BONO SERVICES PROGRAM has been established to develop and promote Pro Bono services utilizing our specific skills to provide digital forensic services to individuals of limited financial means and charitable organizations.
