What is Probono

Social contribution activities making full use of professional expertise and skills.
Abbreviation for "public benefit" in Latin (Pro bono public).
In the United States, the US National Bar Association began in 1993 with the recommendation of a pro bono activity of more than 50 hours per year to a lawyer in 1993, and from the tax accountants, accountants, management consultants, to the white collar of sales staff and clerical worker in general corporations It expanded.
Actively being carried out as one of the citizen's activities, it is spreading in response to the voice such as "to become a study for the main business", "to broaden our horizons with different industry exchanges" and "lead to self-realization". In Japan, except for European and American foreign companies, recognition is still low, but pro bono activities to support non-profit organizations such as public benefit corporations are being carried out in areas where emphasis is placed on expertise such as IT, accounting, public relations and design.
