Public Interest Law Foundation’s 27th Annual Auction
WITH KEYNOTE SPEAKER
The Honorable Justice Mary Yu Washington State Supreme Court
F E B R UA RY 2 9, 2 0 2 0
WE LCOM E Dear Supporters and Friends, Welcome to the Public Interest Law Foundation’s 27th Annual Auction, “Visionaries.” We so appreciate you joining us this evening to support such a wonderful cause. Our PILF Auction is a signature Seattle University School of Law event, and tonight is the culmination of more than a year’s worth of work by a committee of dedicated alumni, the Access to Justice Institute, the Advancement Office, and most importantly, the students on the PILF Board. The direct beneficiaries of tonight’s efforts are the students who will participate in the 2020 PILF Summer Grant Program. Your attendance and support this evening signals that our PILF grantees’ work is important to the legal community. PILF grants allow our students to experience the joy and gratification that come from helping others through their summer employment, while also learning critical lawyering skills and being guided and mentored by spirited lawyers (a great number of whom are Seattle U Law alumni). Many of the students in this program will go on to pursue public interest careers and become leaders in their fields and in our communities. As we all know, the justice gap in our communities is widening, and thousands of individuals with legal needs do not have access to legal services. The students who receive PILF grants will work tirelessly this summer to promote justice and equity and to expand capacity to legal aid, while experiencing firsthand the privilege of being a lawyer and the responsibility of serving others. You will hear more this evening about the future leaders you are supporting and the worthy community organizations that will employ them. In thinking about tonight’s theme, we invite you all to consider what being a “visionary” means to you. For us, being a visionary means being willing to dream about a world in which everyone is treated with the dignity, respect, and humanity they deserve, but also being willing to do the work to make that vision a reality. As you listen to the inspiring stories of our grant recipients this evening, we hope you will see the incredible good that flows from supporting our students and helping them put their dreams into action. Seattle U Law’s commitment to helping bridge the justice gap and our mission to educate powerful advocates for justice is realized through the PILF Summer Grant Program. Thank you so much for being here, for supporting PILF and our wonderful Seattle U Law students, for caring about the under‑served in our communities, and for joining our celebration of 27 years of this worthy organization! In gratitude, Annette E. Clark ’89 Rachel Groshong ’13 Dean and Professor of Law Chair, Alumni Steering Committee

E M I LY J U STI N ’ 2 1 Solid Ground Emily attended the University of Washington where she studied Political Science and Gender, Women, and Sexuality Studies. Emily’s motivation to come to law school was entirely motivated by the power the law has on influencing society as a whole and the effect the law can have on individual’s lives. Particularly, she sees day in and day out how the law can transform the lives of indigent people, families, and communities. This past summer, Emily worked at Solid Ground with the help of a PILF grant. Solid Ground works to end poverty and undo racism and oppression. In a legal capacity, Solid Ground attorneys assist single adults and families whose cash, food, medical, and childcare benefits have been reduced, terminated, or denied. As a legal intern, Emily assisted in this process. Spending her summer doing work at Solid Ground allowed Emily to synthesize her passion for social justice and her knowledge of the law.
VA LLE N SO LO M O N ’ 2 0 Northwest Justice Project Vallen graduated from Seattle University with a Bachelor of Arts in History. He chose to go to law school because he wanted to be an advocate for vulnerable communities and those who have historically not been in positions to advocate for themselves. With that goal in mind, in the summer of 2018 Vallen worked at the King County Bar Association’s Housing Justice Project. During his time at the Housing Justice Project, Vallen was able to work alongside a team that researched and analyzed King County’s evictions from 2017. The report that came as a result of this research played a key role in the passing of legislation for eviction reform in Washington in 2019. This past summer, Vallen worked at the Northwest Justice Project (NJP), in the newly created King County Housing and Consumer Protection Unit as a Rule 9 intern. At NJP, he continued to advocate for low-income tenants facing eviction and other housingrelated issues. Through this work, Vallen has found that advocating for low-income tenants facing eviction and other housing-related issues has implications much further than just housing; in fact, a successful life first begins with a stable home life.
