Dear Supporter:

 

The Pennsylvania Bar Foundation will be holding its popular Foundation of Treasures from Monday to Friday, May 1-5, 2023. This marks our 25th year. To commemorate this milestone, we are offering a few ways you can support our mission.

 

The 25th Foundation of Treasurers Auction will be held at the same time as the 2023 Pennsylvania Bar Association’s Annual Meeting at the Sheraton Downtown Philadelphia Hotel in Philadelphia, PA. The Meeting will be attended by hundreds of lawyers and judges from across the Commonwealth. Online bidding will be available to all attendees as well as off-site participants, who will have the opportunity to help raise funds by bidding from the convenience of their devices or computers. With a limited offering of items, expect the bidding to be very competitive.

 

The mobile visibility is especially favorable for Sponsors. All sponsors will be:

 

-       Publicized on the mobile auction platform.

-       Recognized on our website and social media.

-       Featured in the printed auction brochure, which will be distributed to PBA Annual Meeting attendees, and

-       Listed on onsite auction signage.

 

In addition to the online auction, in-person attendees can participate in our “Fifty for the Foundation Raffle”. The winning ticket will be announced on Facebook Live Friday, May 5 at noon.

 

Lastly, your direct contribution, in any amount, to the Stoudt Fund will help us make a tangible difference in the life of the selected scholarship students. Contributors at these levels will be recognized on onsite auction signage.

 

-       Foundation Patron at $100

-       Foundation Friend at $250

-       Foundation Ambassador at $500

 

The funds raised are dedicated to support the Foundations’ James W. Stoudt Memorial Law School Scholarship Fund. This fund provides three annual scholarships to support students attending accredited Pennsylvania law schools. Two of the scholarships are specifically designated to support minority law students. Our fundraising goal is $15,000. Any money raised above that amount will be earmarked for other programs within the Foundation.

 

Thank you for considering a contribution to this effort. We know it will help make a difference in the lives of worthy law school students.

 

As we are a charitable organization, your donations to the Foundation may be tax deductible. Please use this form to make a cash contribution, or to become an auction sponsor today.

 

Sincerely,
