The Montgomery County Bar Association’s 13th Annual Charity Event is Thursday, October 11th at 6pm at the Warehouse at Alley Station! Our theme this year is “Montgomery’s Got Talent.” We will be showcasing the talents of our colleagues and MPS students to raise money to support Montgomery Public Schools and Montgomery County Volunteer Lawyers Program.

MPS submitted 15 mini-grant requests to the MCBA for funding for specific school needs across the city ranging from basic needs to items that will help our children excel. The grant requests seek funding for Emergency First Aid Kits, Makerspaces that promote STEM education, supplies for Positive Behavior Intervention Support Stores to reward students for good behavior and attendance, a school garden that promotes agricultural learning and life skills, musical instruments and curriculum that develop creativity and problem-solving skills, an agricultural science program to give students on-the-job-training skills, an interactive TV for children with disabilities, lighting and sound equipment for the arts, robotics, and much more. All of the requests are listed on page 3 of the Sponsorship Packet.

Tickets for $50, sponsorships, and individual donations can be made by clicking on the image below, by visiting the MCBA office, or by calling Suzanne Duffey at 265-4793. Sponsorships and donations are tax deductible.  Let’s answer this call to help #MPSMoveForward and VLP serve more clients in need!
