Honor Incoming D.C. Bar President Diane Seltzer and Ensure Access to Justice for all DC Residents
Since 1993, the annual Presidents Reception brings together leaders from the legal and business communities to welcome the incoming D.C. Bar President and support the D.C. Bar Pro Bono Center, the largest provider of pro bono legal services in the District of Columbia. Each year, the Pro Bono Center's award-winning programs, resource centers, and projects serve more than 20,000 individuals living on low incomes, nonprofits, and local small businesses. Your participation makes this critical work possible.
*Please note that the D.C. Bar’s Celebration of Leadership will be held on a separate night this year.
