Celebrating Our Volunteers
On March 6, we held our annual Volunteer Appreciation Event at the Border Grill to thank the dozens of volunteers who contributed over 4,700 hours of service in 2012. This occasion also gave us the opportunity to thank our Board of Directors for their generous support and service throughout the year. We thank MHAS Board President Francis Ryu for sponsoring this festive event. Thanks also to the Los Angeles Dodgers and Mix n' Munch Cereal & Grilled Cheese Cafe for donating door prizes!
Without the energy and dedication of the many law students, pro bono attorneys and others who volunteer at MHAS, we could serve only a fraction of the individuals and families seeking our help.
