- Pro Bono Bankruptcy Clinic: Several FWW attorneys provide pro bono bankruptcy services in partnership with Legal Aid.
- Oregon Lawyers Against Hunger: Hal Scoggins sits on this board that helps eliminate hunger and its root causes.
- Classroom Law Project: Kim McGair is a former board member of this organization that prepares youth to become active, informed participants in democratic society.
- Salvation Army: Paul Migchelbrink is past chair of the Portland Metropolitan Advisory Board whose mission is to do the most good and meet human needs without discrimination.
- Metropolitan Youth Symphony: The firm is a longtime supporter of this organization that provides music education and performance opportunities for young musicians of all ages.
- Campaign for Equal Justice: Melissa Chapman and Sydney Nguyen are active members of the CEJ, which helps vulnerable Oregonians in need of legal services. FWW is a Defender of Justice firm, contributing more than $500 per attorney.
