French Laundry Gala
Legal Aid’s largest fundraising event is the annual Celebrate Spring champagne reception and dinner at The French Laundry in Yountville. An elegant evening, it is an opportunity for residents of the Napa Valley, as well as Legal Aid supporters throughout the Bay Area, to raise vital operating funds for Legal Aid. This year’s event was held on Thursday, May 1, with Honorary Chairs Ambassador Kathryn Hall and the Honorable Scott Snowden.
Legal Aid would like to thank all those who attended this year’s French Laundry event, the event sponsors—Dickenson, Peatman & Fogarty, Gaw Van Male and Silverado Farming Company—as well as those who generously donated their goods and services, including Hall Wines, Paul Hobbs Winery, Jason Kesner, Cliff Lede Vineyards, Richard and Marilyn Mendelson, Shafer Vineyards, Snowden Vineyards, Davis Ramey, BJ's Petal Pushers, David Hughes of Level, Inc., John Lister of PressArts, Bill McClave, Doc's Trophy Shoppe, India Tree, Monteverdi Spirits, Niesen Massey Vanillas, Juliana Pisani and Shackford's Kitchen Store.
Napa County Women Lawyer’s Event
Each year, the Napa County Women Lawyers host a dinner and silent auction to benefit Legal Aid of Napa Valley. This year's event was held at the beautiful Carneros Inn, with over 60 leaders from the Napa County legal community in attendance. Thousands of dollars were raised at the event, all to support Legal Aid's efforts to provide free legal advice and representation services to Napa County's most vulnerable populations.
