Bro bono
Bro bono, is any project related to your profession that a friend or family member asks you to do, that if it was anyone else or a paying client you would either write them off as a difficult client, charging them a lot more as they change the scope of the project, or dismiss the project all together.

You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
