PilchConnect is a not-for-proft organisation established by PILCH (a Victorian community legal centre) to provide free and low-cost legal assistance to not-for-profit community organisations. The fees charged for the not-for-profit seminar series cover the costs of running the training.
PilchConnect strives to make our seminars accessible to small-medium NFPs, and we appreciate that many organisations have limited resources and rely heavily on the work of volunteers. We considered that a tiered fee structure was fairer to both smaller and large organisations. Most of the organisations that attend PilchConnect seminars will fall into the ‘small' organisation category - for both small and larger organisations we consider that the fees represent excellent value for professional legal information training.
As always we appreciate your feedback. PilchConnect can be contacted by
