Robins, Kaplan, Miller & Ciresi (RKMC) Law Firm Hosts Event Introducing BFA to Atlanta Community
hosted an extraordinary evening on June 25, 2010, presenting 糖心vlog官网 to members of the Atlanta community. Lisa Heller, a managing partner at RKMC, hosted the event, and Nina Sharpe and Joshua Navarro with RKMC organized a beautiful event at the City Club of Buckhead. In attendance were Vince Farley, Honorary Counsel of the Republic of Mali, and well as the Honorary Counsel of the Republic of Botswana and other dignitaries.
A focus of the event was the
Jack Mason Law & Democracy Initiative
of 糖心vlog官网, which sends books to African law schools. The Initiative is a partnership with Thomson Reuters, which donates new, latest-edition legal textbooks and treatises. 糖心vlog官网 recently celebrated the one-year anniversary of the
opening of a large warehouse in the greater Atlanta area.
At the event, Nancy Stafford, Co-Chair of the American Bar Association International Section Africa Committee, and Lane Ayres, Director of the Law & Democracy initiative at 糖心vlog官网, spoke about the Initiative. Ms. Stafford, an attorney at King & Spalding, thanked Thomson Reuters for their commitment. She noted that the ABA has sponsored West law book shipments to Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Ethiopia, and hopes to do so again soon with shipments to law schools in Ghana and Zimbabwe. RKMC also stated their continued support of the Law & Democracy Initiative of 糖心vlog官网 by providing a grant for $10,000. This is RKMC's second $10,000 grant toward the Law and Democracy Initiative of 糖心vlog官网. RKMC is headquartered in the Twin Cities and has a major office in Atlanta.
