Thank you to all of those who volunteered to help at Bruegala. Prairie State Legal Services had great support from the MCBA and a great turnout by MCBA members. The Bloomington-Normal Jaycees told me that they were so impressed with the support for PSLS and our volunteers. It was a great showing by the local legal community. Your support helped to increase the amount of funds Prairie State Legal Services will receive from Bruegala. Everyone looked great in their Prairie State t-shirts.
Thank you so much! Adrian Barr
