Judges Foundation to host benefit for service projects

Several public service projects of the Illinois Judges Foundation will be supported by proceeds from the organization’s 2nd annual Spring Reception from 5 to 8 p.m. Thursday, May 20, in the Renaissance Hotel, State Street and Wacker Drive, Chicago. Chief judges of circuit courts throughout the state will be honored, along with the family of Harold W. Sullivan, a retired Cook County judge and founder of the Illinois Judges Association, who died earlier this year. Violin music will be provided by a Chicago Consort from the Western Springs School of Talent Education. The annual Judge Harold Sullivan Law School Scholarship is among beneficiaries of the reception. Others include the ABA Judicial Intern Opportunity Program, the Second Chances Program, Chicago Access to Justice, and the “7 Reasons to Leave the Party” high school education presentations. Tickets to the reception, at $125 per person, include hors d’oeuvres and refreshments. A portion of the contribution is tax-deductible. Reservations may be made by contacting the Illinois Judges Foundation office at (312) 554-2008 or ijf@chicagobar.org, or by accessing the web site, www.ijafoundation.org.
