When is the best time to sign on as a sponsor for Pro Hops Vino! 2019? Right now!

NOVEMBER 7, 5:30-8:30 BIRMINGHAM BOTANICAL GARDENS

Volunteer Lawyers Birmingham is all hands on deck to put on the best fundraising party of the year—but we can’t do it without you! We’re asking you to commit to a sponsorship today for three big reasons:

Visibility. Five hundred lawyers and guests will see your name or brand promoted at the event.
Impact. We help 3,500 low-income clients access justice each year—more than any other pro bono organization in Alabama. We do it with the help of 550 attorney volunteers from throughout the community and money from sponsors like you.
Unrivaled fun. Your sponsorship comes with free tickets and other benefits so you, your clients, and guests can enjoy Pro Hops Vino! November 7 at the Birmingham Botanical Gardens, with unlimited wine, craft beer, spirits, and food tastings.

Why commit today? We only have a few weeks to reach our $100,000 fundraising goal. Please join the sponsors who have already signed on by visiting our Pro Hops Vino! website or emailing Executive Director Nancy Yarbrough right now.

Why we sponsor Pro Hops Vino!: Russ Allison, President of Carr Allison

Russ Allison

“The work done by VLB is vital and important because it fills a serious void in our legal world. We lose sight of the need to provide legal services to those who cannot afford access. Pro Hops Vino! is the perfect way to support and help fund the continued efforts of VLB. We all have an obligation to help those who are not as fortunate, and this is a wonderful way to do that.”
