But outside of the legal profession, that type of access to pro bono services for the nonprofit sector was still rare.

Tulsa, Oklahoma has reinvented itself several times during its history. Once called “The Oil Capital of the World,” today, only a small portion of the once-famed oil operations from the early 1900's still remain.
