Crabfeed Raises Money for Worthy Causes |
The Sacramento Law Foundation will hold its third crabfeed fundraiser on January 22, 2005 in collaboration with the Sacramento Legal Secretaries Association.
The event will be held at the La Sierra Community Center, located at 5325 Engle Road in Carmichael. Tickets are $40.00 each and can be purchased through the Sacramento County Bar Association @ (916) 448-1087 Ext. 200 or email reception@sacbar.org. Because space is limited and a count for the amount of crab is needed in advance of the event, SLF and SLSA urge everyone to buy their tickets early and guarantee a spot at the table. Consider the tickets as perfect gifts for the upcoming holiday season for clients, staff and friends. SLF Board member John Bennett is serving as the SLF co-chairperson for the event and can be contacted through the SCBA office for donation of silent auction items or volunteer commitments to work the crabfeed. SLF looks forward to making this even more successful than the 2004 event and appreciates the past support of the community at large. The Sacramento Law Foundation is the charitable “arm” of the Sacramento legal community and has provided funding for various programs affiliated with non-profit organizations, such as pro bono legal clinics, mock trial and moot court programs for high school students and legal education clinics. In order to have money to make these grants, the foundation sponsors charitable events throughout the year. Because of the past generosity of its supporters, SLF has made grants for the benefit of the Center for Youth Citizenship , the Safety Faire presented by the SCBA and the Capitol City Legal Professionals Association, the Open Doors to Federal Courts Program, the “Citizen’s Academy” organized and sponsored by the Sacramento District Attorney’s Office, and the Bella Vista moot court team for a national competition. Without its generous contributors and supporters, SLF would not be able to benefit these worthwhile programs. November / December 2004 |
