This reception is designed to allow non-members an experiential way of learning about the WBA and the Women's Bar Association Foundation (WBAF), in a networking atmosphere. The event provides a platform for the WBA Committees and Fora to feature their activities, attract new participants, and gather ideas about programs and issues from the constituency they serve. Last year we took the unprecedented step of honoring the Stars of the Bar-fifteen legendary WBA members- each known for her commitment to helping other women develop and achieve success in the legal profession. This successful strategy, begun modestly in 2001 with 250 attendees, drew over 600 people and was a major factor in attracting 150 members in September and October. Many of these new members have contributed to the success of subsequent WBA and WBAF events, and in the process, strengthened the Foundation. We believe that this year's event, following the same format, will attract additional numbers. This is WBA's only free event, purposefully so to attract as many eligible participants as possible and increasing WBA's visibility among the women lawyers of our area. In the past, we have asked sponsors to help defray the costs of the cocktail reception, and we have been honored by their generosity. The attached budgets provide a perspective on our growth and our need. We request that the WBA Foundation consider a grant of $5,000 to help underwrite the costs of the Fall Networking Reception honoring the Stars of the Bar. Attached is the general budget outlining expenses involved in this event. We would be pleased to answer any questions you may have concerning this event.
