The Vanguard Announces the First 31 Sponsors to Immigration Event

Last week the Vanguard launched its 8th Annual Fundraiser, focusing on the highly topical subject of immigrant rights.  The goal is 100 sponsors by August 31 – we are nearly one-quarter of the way there.

The event features the Chief Attorney in the San Francisco Public Defender’s Office, Matt Gonzalez, who also represented a number of high profile civil matters in Yolo about a decade ago, as well as Holly Cooper from the UC Davis Immigration Law Clinic.

The event will take place on Saturday, October 27, from 5 to 8 at the Davis Community Church. Starting today we have our early Sponsorship period which ends on August 31. Sponsorships start at $100 and go up to $5000.

Details are below and in the link.
