Corks for a Cause was a tremendous success! Thanks to the generous sponsorship of Peterson & Myers, all proceeds benefitted our charities, Florida Breast Cancer Foundation and the Women's Care Center in Bartow. Thank you to Obscure Wine Co. for hosting and to everyone who donated gift baskets, including Southern Atlantic Law Group, Burnetti, P.A., Davidson of Dundee, Caleb Sturgis, Candice Dixon, Ron Schulley, Saray N. Ravello, & Moody Law, P.A.  

This year PAWL's back-to-school drive benefitted the Polk Education Foundation's Teacher Market. Our legal community was extremely generous with their donations and we were able to provide three carloads of school supplies for teachers and students in need. The PEF sent a heartfelt thank you. "So many families are struggling this year to purchase the supplies needed for school. Our desire is that students have the tools they need for school, eliminating worry, and allowing students to focus on learning. You are making a difference!" 

Thank you to everyone who donated and thank you to the following firms for providing supplies and/or serving as a drop off location: Brooks Law Group, Burnetti, Gray Robinson, Kaylor Law Group, Moody Law, the Public Defender's Office, Southern Atlantic Law Group, and the State Attorney's Office.

The Florida Association for Women Lawyers awarded PAWL the Outstanding Public Service Award for 2021-22. In addition, member Lydia Zbreznj was recognized as a Leader in the Law. 

PAWL was honored to be selected to receive the FAWL Outstanding Public Service Award for its Drive-By Holiday Parade in support of the residents of Bartow's Women's Care Center, a transitional housing facility for homeless women and children.
