IMPORTANT UPDATE

Law School…Yes We Can Community, 

The health and well-being of our sponsors, mentors and fellows is deeply important to us. Therefore, the Law School…Yes We Can Board of Directors has decided to convert the 2020 Building Futures fundraiser to a virtual event in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. The virtual event will go live on April 22, 2020 and remain available for you to view at your convenience through at least May 22, 2020. The Building Futures event is the primary fundraiser through which LSYWC raises money to, among other things, provide:
 

  • Scholarships for Fellows to take a PowerScore LSAT preparation course and pay living expenses so they can focus on studying for the LSAT instead of trying to work multiple jobs and still excel in college 

  • Workshops for Fellows, including the administration of Myers Briggs and emotional intelligence tests 

  • Resources for the general operation of the organization, including our incredible Executive Director.


The virtual Building Futures fundraiser will feature an address from our distinguished Speakers, and short videos from several of our Fellows describing the impact of LSYWC on their journey to law school. Our virtual silent auction will proceed online and allow you to electronically bid on items, such as cooking lessons with Judge Arguello and a private wine tasting for 18 of your closest friends. This virtual silent auction will start on April 15, 2020 and end on April 22, 2020. Details on how to participate can be found here.

LSYWC continues to be humbled by the support of its partners, both financially and in kind. We cannot exist without you and we are certain that by supporting each other, we will stay safe and healthy and overcome these difficult times. We are honored to continue partnering with you to diversify the legal profession. The Building Futures event is critical to the financial wellbeing of LSYWC, and we are hopeful you will join us in making this year’s virtual event a success that ensures LSYWC can continue its mission in 2020 and beyond.
