Pro Hops Vino! is coming—it's the premier legal party of the year!
Save the date: VLB is gearing up for our biggest fundraising event of the year
Mark your calendars—we've set the date for our biggest fundraising event of the year! On Thursday, November 7th, 500 lawyers and guests will turn out at the Birmingham Botanical Gardens for Pro Hops Vino! to enjoy unlimited wine, craft beer, spirits, food tasting, and fun.

In the past Pro Hops Vino! has raised more than $100,000 for VLB, helping us provide legal aid to 3,500 low-income clients each year. Our programming results in 550 attorney volunteers providing 4,500 hours of service through our Help Desks—the equivalent of $1 million in free legal help to those who need it most.
You can help make this year's event a success by signing on as a sponsor today. We have six sponsorship levels available, with benefits ranging from free tickets up to signage and recognition in Pro Hops Vino! promotional materials.

At every sponsorship level, Pro Hops Vino! provides valuable visibility for you, your firm, or your business. Better still, your sponsorship dollars will have an immediate impact on the lives of those we serve by providing access to justice for low-income people in Jefferson County.

Please look for your sponsor packet in the mail soon, or visit our Pro Hops Vino! site today for sponsorship information. You can also email Executive Director Nancy Yarbrough with any questions.
Thank you for volunteering!
