Join us on Thursday, October 29th at Morgan Manufacturing for our 2026 Annual Gala. Our premier fundraising event is truly a Justice Innovation Celebration highlighting LCLC’s measurable impact and strategic growth. The evening will feature a cocktail reception, plated dinner, program and award ceremony, and an exciting live auction. Also, for all our sponsors and VIP ticket holders, there will be a VIP dessert reception to close out the evening. This year, we’re pleased to have Senator Lakesia Collins as our keynote speaker. We will also honor Paula Ketcham, Partner & Deputy General Counsel at ArentFox Schiff with our Partner in Justice Award, and Tyrone Stallworth, Residential Outreach Worker at Lawndale Christian Legal Center with our Emerging Leader Award. We hope you will come and celebrate these three incredible people and be a part of our community for a very special night.
