The ALA would like to thank its Members and Business Partners who attended the Business Partner Appreciation and Holiday events for their generous donations to our Community Challenge Charities. 

A good time was had by all who attended our Annual Business Partner Appreciation event.  Our Community Challenge was Big Brothers/Big Sisters and our generous Members and Business Partners donated board games for this charity.  Also, an additional $367 was raised between Member and Business Partner individual donations and a 50/50 raffle.

The Holiday event raised $386 between the Lottery Board and 50/50 in addition to all of the gift card donations for the Mother’s-in-Charge Community Challenge.  In addition, our Board Member, Margie Sigmund, won the 50/50 and donated her share ($250) to our Charity raising the donation to $636 to this worthy Charity. And, Suzanne Homel, an ALA Member, won the overnight stay at the Downtown Marriott (which the Marriott donated to the Chapter) and donated her prize to the Charity as well.

We also had two big winners - one at each event.  Gail Ruopp and Karen Rudderow won the all expense paid trips to the National Conference in Honolulu next April.  Congratulations to both!! 

The Philadelphia Chapter Members and Business Partners exceeded all expectations.  We have an amazing group of folks in our legal community working together towards improving the welfare in our local communities.
