Lawyers Club supports San Diego nonprofits and students
The Lawyers Club of San Diego presented grants totaling $16,000 to three local nonprofit organizations and awarded three law student scholarships at its annual holiday luncheon on Dec. 13 at the Westin San Diego hotel. Lawyers Club Fund for Justice grant recipients included Voices for Children, Casa Cornelia Law Center and the San Diego Volunteer Lawyer Program. The Fund for Justice was established in order to provide grants for education, research, funding and programming to address social issues and specific problems relating to women and children in San Diego County. More than $10,000 in donations were collected at the luncheon to support future grants awarded by the Fund for Justice. Lawyers Club also presented scholarships to students from each of the three area law schools. Scholarship winners included Darlene Rabina, a third-year student at the University of San Diego School of Law; Melissa Mack, a second-year student at California Western School of Law; and Amy Loutit, a second-year student at Thomas Jefferson School of Law. More than 300 Lawyers Club members and friends attended the holiday luncheon.
