2022 MABL Gala Sponsorships

The Minnesota Association of Black Lawyers (MABL)
cordially invites you to be a sponsor at our annual Scholarship Gala
to be held on November 12, 2022 from 6pm to 10pm
at the Fillmore Minneapolis
525 North 5th Street | Minneapolis, Minnesota 55401

Each year, the MABL Foundation invests in Black law students by awardimng scholarships to students who have demonstrated outstanding academic achievement and who are committed to addressing issues that impact the Black community. These students are recognized and honored at the Gala, along with the recipient of the MABL President's Award and the MABL Profiles in Courage Award - awarded to an individual who has demonstrated courage, excellence, and integrity in furthering the Association's mission of representing the interests of Black citizens in the legal profession and judicial system. 

The theme of this year's Scholarship Gala is, "Dreaming with Your Eyes Wide Open." The theme captured the ongoing challenges and opportunities to partner with the community and legal profession to do better and be better. As we emerge from the challenges of the last few years, we wanted to re-imagine and invest in our community by partnering with local Black businesses such as Pimento Jamaican Kitchen and Love You Cookie.  We are asking for your continued support and patronage as we dream big and keep moving forward.

**We kindly request all guests to be vaccinated against COVID 19 or wear a mask to protect the health and welfare of other guests.**
