Indefinitely Postponed: Pillars of Justice 2024
After careful consideration, we have made the decision that the Foundation must indefinitely postpone our 2024 Pillars of Justice event due to the state of emergency caused by Hurricanes Helene and Milton and its impact on our community. The decision to cancel is difficult, as the revenue from this event is used to support our mission to fund, develop and promote efforts which enhance the legal profession and encourage better public understanding of and access to the judicial system.
Refunds will be available to ticket purchasers along with an option to support The St. Petersburg Bar Foundation – ticket purchasers will receive an email. We are also reaching out separately to our Sponsors and Corporate Annual Sponsors with options for their consideration.
Thank you for your understanding, patience, and continued support.
Do you know an attorney who volunteers to help others – not through pro bono service – but through other volunteer efforts? Among our efforts in enhancing the legal profession is to honor those who go above and beyond the call of duty in volunteering their time and talents in our community.
