HAPPY HOLIDAYS & THANK YOU
From your Empire Mock Trial family
This year, Empire launched its Impact 2000 campaign: an ambitious three year
plan to provide high-quality legal education programming for 2000 students
per year by the end of 2017.
With 1250 students impacted this year, we're nearly halfway there. But to reach
our goal, we need the support of the legal community.
If you can, please consider giving. Your donation will offset program costs such
as the courthouse and meals, ensuring affordability for student participants.

Empire showed me what I truly want
to do with my life: standing up,
presenting perspectives and seeing
fair outcomes in society.
