I am very pleased to inform you that you have been selected as the Southern California Law Firm recipient of the 1995 President's Pro Bono awards. You were chosen by the Board of Governors of the State Bar of California for outstanding contributions of pro bono legal services on behalf of California's poor and disadvantaged.

Please join me and the Board of Governors at a special reception where you and the other award recipients will be honored during the State Bar Annual Meeting. The Pro Bono reception will be held on Friday, September 29, 1995 from 5-7pm at the Sheraton-Palace in San Francisco. Invitations to the reception will be mailed under separate cover. Sharon Ngim of the State Bar's Office of Legal Services staff will be contacting you concerning your involvement in the awards ceremony.

On behalf of the State Bar of California, congratulations. Your achievements have brought great honor to the entire legal profession. I look forward to meeting you at the reception.
