Join us on September 25 for the culminating event of our yearlong celebration of the founding of Education Law Center in Pennsylvania 50 years ago in 1975.
For more information, please download the full sponsorship packet.
All year long we are revisiting and sharing highlights from our history and how we have fought for and successfully expanded education rights in Pennsylvania and nationally.
Our September 25 celebration is ELC’s premier fundraiser, bringing together our biggest champions for an unforgettable night of meaningful conversation and connection, inspiration and impact.
We look forward to sharing more about ELC’s ongoing initiatives to advance education justice and to recognizing our generous partners who make this work possible — now and into the future.
With your support, ELC will be better equipped to meet the demand for our direct services, address systemic barriers that prevent all students from thriving, and promote the adoption of policies and practices that will create inclusive, positive school climates.
About this year’s event venue: Built in 1923, a half century before ELC was launched, the Switch House was once a formidable power station supplying electricity throughout Philadelphia.
We are thrilled to host this year’s special milestone at this newly renovated, historic venue. You might come away electrified!
Please contact ELC Development Specialist Ariella Gregson to learn more.
