We cordially invite you to be
…what better way to describe our LGBT year-in-the-life? When the history books are written, this past year will be remembered as the year in which LGBT Americans claimed victory after victory—from decisive wins at the ballot box; to the forceful advancement of LGBT rights in the courts; to major celebrities and role models coming out-of-the-closet; and to BALIF celebrating 33 years as the oldest and largest LGBT bar association in the country. This year, BALIF descends upon the stately Bently Reserve with 600+ attorneys, judges, lawmakers, in-house counsel, and law students—to celebrate the LGBT community being “Simply Fabulous!” We honor The Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund for helping LGBT leaders get elected (Community Service Award); and AIDS Legal Referral Panel, which celebrates 30 years of providing free and low-cost legal services to persons living with HIV/AIDS (Legal Service Award). Go here details about Gala Pre-Party (including the GoSolo event) and Gala After-Party. Individual Gala tickets can be purchased at balif.org. You may also contact Gala Co-Chair Jamie Dupree at gala@balif.org For one evening, we unite as a community. Stand tall. Be proud. Let’s praise our hard-earned victories. This past year has been “Simply Fabulous”, and we want to celebrate it with you. Join us for an unforgettable Gala. |
