For the Public Good

The MWL Professional Development committee is hosting an important program this upcoming Thursday, December 11. Titled "For the Public Good: A User's Guide to Pro Bono Work," the event is being hosted at Lindquist & Vennum. The event goes from 12:00 to 1:30 p.m., it's free, and there is lunch served. (Attendees are asked to bring an item for a food shelf.)

The panel of speakers could not be more experienced in this area:

Moderator: Nicole Siemens, Attorney, Lindquist & Vennum
Karen Canon
, Associate General Counsel/Chief Regulatory Counsel, US Bancorp
Janine Laird, Executive Director, Minnesota Justice Foundation
Sandra Smalley-Fleming, Attorney, Lindquist & Vennum

If that isn't enough to convince you, I'm not above throwing out a small reminder that it is the season of giving...what could be more valuable than your time and professional skills, given towared a good cause? Registration can be found here.
