I recently heard from a reader named Frank, who's making a frantic, last-ditch effort to find a student group in Southern California to host his organization's program, PreProBono. He sounded a little desperate, and it sounds like a good opportunity, so I'm helping him put the call out.
PreProBono provides resources to prelaw students (with a focus on public service law). The weekend program includes an intensive LSAT prep course, dinner with a keynote speaker, and access to law school application assistance. They provide scholarships to students interested in probono/public service law and have a financial assistance program for those who qualify.
Basically, they're on a summer tour, and looking for a last-minute student group to host their program at a campus somewhere in Los Angeles on August 15 and 16. They originally had a school lined up, but I guess that fell through, so they have a hole in their schedule.
There must be a bunch of prelaw-interested students out there who are willing to help these guys out, and you really wouldn't have to do any of the planning. But they need to know soon. To learn more about PreProBono and their work, go here. And if you can help them out (or just hear them out), contact Jerone Hsu at (408) 455-3119 or jerone@primeproduce.org.
