Happy Holidays!
We wanted to
share some of the great photos from our 14th Annual Pro
Bono Reception, held on October 22, 2009 at the beautiful
New York State Museum, and give some special thanks to some special
people that made it an especially wonderful event.
We had a fabulous
raffle for a 52 inch Flat Screen TV donated by Press Play
Home Entertainment and 4 Yankee Boston tickets for the
2010 Season with a limo ride from Today’s Limousine.
Tom King was the lucky winner of the TV and Joe Caruso nearly fell
over when he found out he won the Yankee tickets.

First,
I want to thank our amazing staff of The Legal Project who
make a great team and made this event look easy to pull off.
You truly are the best staff in the world! |

Here is
a stunned Tom King with the great folks from Press Play. |

Victor
Mazzotti & Paul Harding
We wanted
to send a HUGE thank you to Paul Harding
and all of the terrific people at Martin, Harding
& Mazzotti, LLP, who, by far, sold the most raffle
tickets. We know selling anything in these economic times
is a challenge, but these folks went all out and sold hundreds
of tickets. Thank you!!!! |

We had
a fun, new addition to our Pro Bono Reception—delicious
desserts donated by the Four Corners Luncheonette
in Delmar, including freshly prepared homemade apple donut
sundaes. And since people ate them standing up, there were
no calories! Thank you, David and all the good folks at Four
Corners! |

Michelle
Wildgrube, John Kenney and Lydia Kulbida
We are
very grateful to the wonderful Lydia Kulbida of
WTEN, who generously gave of her time to
be our Mistress of Ceremonies. It is clear that she truly
cares about the work of The Legal Project and the people that
we serve—thank you so much, Lydia! |

Lisa
Frisch, Michael Breslin and Susan Arbetter
For the
first time, we had a live auction as well as a silent auction,
and the incredible and multi-talented Susan Arbetter
of WCNY was our auctioneer. Susan created
such an amazing energy in the room that everyone is asking
us to do it again next year. She also drove back and forth
from Syracuse in order to do this for us. Thank you, Susan!

Thank
you again to our generous Underwriters, Steering Committee, Silent
Auction Committee, Honorary Committee Members, Auction Donors and
those who took the time to attend! Congratulations again to the
Award Winners!!!!
