Nancy Martin Award

This year's Nancy Martin Outstanding Nonprofit of the Year Award is given to:

Legal Aid of Marin

Each year, Legal Aid of Marin (LAM) provides thousands of Marin residents with access to direct civil legal services and resources. The purpose of our booth is to inform the community of our various service areas, such as: eviction defense and homelessness prevention legal services; wage claims and employment law; consumer debt legal services; and fines and fees alleviation through our Community Court Program. We will also have information on our outreach events and clinic dates. Legal Aid of Marin practices trauma-informed lawyering and is dedicated to increasing Marin County residents’ access to justice!

Visit Legal Aid of Marin at the Fair in Booth 188.
For more information, see the Legal Aid of Marin website.

About Nancy Martin

Nancy Martin was a long-time supporter of the Marin Senior Fair and a member of the all-volunteer Senior Fair Steering Committee for many years. Nancy was the Marketing Director of The Tamalpais, a retirement community in Greenbrae, for 24 years. Her work touched the lives of many and she was particularly loved by the residents of The Tamalpais. After her sudden death in 2013, members of the Senior Fair Steering Committee wished to commemorate her commitment to the older adult community in Marin by naming the Fair's Nonprofit of the Year Award in her honor.
