Mini-Live Auction and Wall of World Wines
This year, NWIRP is adding something a little different to our event with our Wall of World Wines raffle. You can support our cause by making a donation to this raffle, held in conjunction with the mini-live auction. Our goal is to collect 100 bottles of wine from all over the world. Help us reach this goal by making a gift now or by donating a bottle of your favorite international wine!
In addition to gifts of world wine, NWIRP seeks donations of gift certificates or other items from your organization or business for its mini-live auction. NWIRP supporters have already donated tickets to the August 13th Sounders v. Chivas soccer game, and a private group sewing lesson!
To advertise and support NWIRP's services through donating, please fill out our Auction Procurement Form and return it to us at your earliest convenience. If you would like to discuss your potential donation further, please feel free to email Michelle, or call her at 206.957.8635.
Golden Door and Amicus Awards
NWIRP honored to present Michael Concannon with this year’s Golden Door award for his ongoing dedication to pro bono representation, especially in defending those who are detained. The Amicus Award will be presented to K&L Gates, for their work on the groundbreaking case of Rennison Castillo, and Omar Riojas & DLA Piper for their national litigation work on behalf of immigrants, especially in the case of Maria L. v. State of Nebraska.
Many Thanks to Our Generous Event Sponsors!
