2021 Grant Awards Ceremony

The WBA Foundation’s 2021 grant recipients are at the forefront of efforts to reach and serve some of the most vulnerable members of our community, individuals who are facing challenges ranging from homelessness to domestic violence and workplace discrimination. It is our privilege to recognize and honor them through our grant-making process.

Join us as we honor and recognize our 2021 grantees:

Amara Legal Center

Ayuda

DC KinCare Alliance

DC Volunteer Lawyers Project

First Shift Justice

Legal Counsel for the Elderly

Network for Victim Recovery of DC (NVRDC)

Safe Sisters Circle

Washington Legal Clinic for the Homeless

Our program will highlight our grantees and their work. We will hear about clients that moved them and how their work and services have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.

We will also honor and remember two Foundation past presidents whom we lost in the past year: Patricia Gurne and Monica Parham.
