Thank you to everyone who joined us at the 2016 Jazz for Justice benefit honoring Shelley Dropkin and Asian Americans for Equality (AAFE)! Over 400 guests, including attorneys from New York City's largest law firms and corporate legal departments, community partners, and staff gathered at Cipriani 42nd street to celebrate Shelley and AAFE for their commitment to access to justice for all New York City communities. We were also delighted to recognize our Top 10 Pro Bono Leaders, firms that have donated significant time and talent in service of our clients. We hope that you had a memorable evening, and that you enjoyed the music of acclaimed jazz clarinetist Anat Cohen.
We deeply appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you again at next year’s event!
