Thursday is Give to the Max Day here in Minnesota! Please consider donating to the Asylum Law Project-

The Asylum Law Project exists to provide a meaningful public interest opportunity for law students to provide pro bono legal assistance to organizations that work in the field of Asylum and/or Immigration Law. ALP fills a substantial need for legal assistance to immigrants, refugees and asylum seekers who seldom have access to competent legal representation.

Our first round of Hair for Help is complete, and it was a huge success! We surpassed our goal of $150, so Libby has cut her hair! Check out the video below to see what she’s done. Keep an eye out for Chase’s hair stunt in the next week or two!

Now it’s time for Round 2 of Hair for Help: Let’s raise $650 so we can send law students to help asylum seekers! If we raise $650 by Thursday October 24th, six of your fellow 1L classmates will either cut or dye their hair. Here are your participating peers:

AJ
Alena
Andrew
Avery
Haashir
Sarani

Thanks to all who donated in Round 1! Now let's beat that number in Round 2! :)
