ARMONK, NY--(MARKET WIRE)--Mar 20, 2009 -- IBM (NYSE:IBM - News) today released a podcast that reveals why, in today's challenging economic environment, it is more important than ever for companies to sustain their commitment to providing pro bono services to nonprofit organizations.
The podcast recording details the important free legal services that IBM lawyers offer to nonprofits that otherwise are unable to afford the assistance and counsel of an attorney.
On the podcast, Michelle Browdy, vice president and assistant general counsel, Litigation, IBM; Maurice K. Segall, director, New York & Fairfield County Programs, for the Pro Bono Partnership; and Joanna Straub, executive director, The Volunteer Center of United Way, discuss IBM's On Demand Community volunteer program and the Pro Bono Partnership's recognition of IBM as an Outstanding Volunteer of 2008.
The Pro Bono award was granted to IBM in recognition of free legal assistance its attorneys have provided to the Partnership's clients, which are nonprofit organizations serving the disadvantaged or working in the public interest in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.
Additional information about IBM's global volunteerism initiative is available through its On Demand Community site, which helps volunteers provide Web-based solutions and assistance to their communities.
