ALRP 36th Annual Reception & Auction Photos
ALRP’s From the Heart 36th Annual Reception & Auction raised more than $180,000 to support ALRP’s free and low-cost legal services and programs for people living with HIV/AIDS. The Annual Reception, ALRP’s biggest fundraising event of the year, was held on Thursday, November 7th in the Julia Morgan Ballroom at the Merchants Exchange in San Francisco. The event was attended by over 350 guests. During the evening, ALRP recognized its 36 years of achievement and honored those who have made a lasting difference in the lives of people with HIV/AIDS. Guest host Rafael Mandelman presented the ALRP 2019 Clint Hockenberry Leadership Award to Connie Hiatt, JD, the ALRP 2019 Attorney of the Year Award to John M. Fasesky, Esq., and the ALRP 2019 Firm of the Year Award to Kosinski + Thiagaraj, LLP.
The Annual Reception’s title, “From the Heart,” is a tribute to the dedication of ALRP Board members, staff, and volunteer Panel Attorneys who contribute their time and energy on behalf of people living with HIV/AIDS. The reception featured gourmet catered hors d’oeuvres, excellent wines donated by Viszlay Vineyards, and a silent & live auction conducted by Bizzarros Gala and Event Auctions.
