2022 Lawyers for Literacy Trivia Tournament
Lawyers for Literacy is EWDC's annual fundraiser where members of the legal community battle it out over rounds of trivia, all for a good cause: our students. The 2022 event, hosted by Sidley Austin LLP, had 8 teams compete with Wilson Sonsini taking the top prize.
Thanks to all that participated and helped support programs that build the literacy and social-emotional skills children need to succeed.
