Firm Signs On As Minnesota Women Lawyers' First "I AM MWL" Campaign Anchor Sponsor
Only One Additional Anchor Sponsor Opportunity Remains
Dec 20, 2005
Minnesota Women Lawyers (MWL) is pleased to announce Robins, Kaplan, Miller & Ciresi L.L.P. as its first Anchor Sponsor of the "I am MWL" fundraising campaign. This two-year commitment by Robins, Kaplan, Miller & Ciresi L.L.P will help provide the foundation upon which MWL will build a new multi-year fundraising campaign. One additional Anchor Sponsorship opportunity is currently available.
"We are absolutely thrilled that Robins, Kaplan, Miller & Ciresi has become an MWL Anchor Sponsor," states MWL President Dani Deering. "Our organization is committed to fulfilling our mission through expanded service to our membership and the community. A successful fundraising campaign will ensure the continued growth of MWL for the next 33 years."
"We are committed to supporting the legal community and believe MWL's focus on strategic planning is important to lawyers," states Annamarie Daley, partner at Robins, Kaplan, Miller & Ciresi L.L.P. "We are hoping other law firms will follow with a commitment to MWL."
The "I am MWL" fundraising campaign is the first of its kind in Minnesota Women Lawyer’s 33-year history. The initiative will focus on two overall goals: 1) to reconnect with MWL's membership through a myriad of new events and initiatives; and 2) to revitalize the association with an increase in its available financial resources. Additional financial support from both individual members and the legal community will be the key to MWL's continued growth and success.
The Anchor Sponsorship is a two year partnership at the $30,000 level ($15,000 in 2006 and $15,000 in 2007). This unique sponsorship not only includes "bundled" sponsor benefits for the organizations hallmark annual events, but it also includes new benefits specific to the "I am MWL" campaign.
In the coming weeks, MWL will also introduce opportunities for law firms and legal employers to join the "I am MWL" campaign through Premier Sponsorships. Available at a variety of levels, the Premier Sponsorship will allow legal employers to demonstrate their commitment to MWL's mission, streamline their support with a one-time contribution, and then reap the benefits all year long.
For more information on the remaining Anchor Sponsor opportunity, or on Premier Sponsorships, please contact MWL President Dani Deering (651/456-3491; dani.deering@lmco.com) or MWL Executive Director Debra Pexa (612/338-3205; dpexa@mwlawyers.org).
