Fayette County Bar Association Young Lawyer's Section News and Upcoming Events
Back 2 School Drive!
It's that time of year again . . . back to school flyers are already part of the Sunday newspaper, and parents are planning for the trip to Target or Wal-Mart to purchase school supplies. Unfortunately, some parents can't provide as much for their kids as they would like, but we can help.
Please join the FCBA Young Lawyers in the seventh annual school supply drive for children who need a little extra help. We will accept anything you are willing to give, and have been asked specifically for: Backpacks, Binders (1”, 2” and 3”), Scissors, Calculators, Markers, Glue Sticks, Composition Notebooks, Spiral Notebooks, Notebook Paper (college and wide rule), Rulers, Graph Paper, Pocket Folders, Colored Pencils, Crayons, Pencils/pens, Dividers, Index Cards, School Boxes, Highlighters, Sharpies, Compass/protractors, Dictionaries, and Thesauruses.
Please simply collect the supplies in a box at your office between July 28 and August 11 and contact Coley Stilz or Adrian Mendiondo (contact information below) to coordinate a pick-up. The Fayette County Public Schools will distribute these items to students during the first few weeks of school. Any and all donations are appreciated. If you prefer to donate money to cause, checks should be made payable to the FCBA Young Lawyers Section.
We will be happy to collect the donations anytime between Monday, July 28 and Monday, August 11. Thank you for your donations and support! To arrange a pick-up of your donation or for any questions, please contact Coley Stilz, Stoll Keenon Ogden PLLC, 300 West Vine Street, Suite 2100, (859) 231-3680, coley.stilz@skofirm.com or Adrian Mendiondo, Kinkead & Stilz, PLLC, 301 East Main St., Suite 800, (859) 296-2300, amendiondo@ksattorneys.com.
