Carolina Public Interest Law Organization will host its annual Auction & Benefit in January 2017. All of the proceeds from the event go directly to fund UNC law students accepting full-time, unpaid public interest law positions for the summer. Stay tuned for more information!
The auction features a live and silent auction, giving students a chance to bid on unique experiences with their professors: from camping trips, dinner at a professors' home, karoke night, tickets to UNC basketball, and much more! The event also aims to support local small businesses which graciously donated many of the auction items. UNC sports memorabilia, vacation homes, shopping parties, wine tastings, art, ski passes and more than a hundred other items and services will be up for auction. Last year's benefit featured Carolina Law's Dean Myers as emcee, students Munashe Magarira and Roby Chatterji as comic relief, and heavy hors d’oeuvres catered by Top of the Hill. Tickets cost $13 in advance or $15 at the door, and cover admission and the cost of food.
All profits go towards our summer grants! Questions? Contact Alexandra Snow.
