PACE is a Florida-based, nationally recognized not-for-profit organization that provides non-residential, prevention, intervention and diversion services for at-risk girls and young women ages 12 to 17. In this year’s auction L.A.W. had support from the faculty offering everything from a trip to “Pink Floyd Experience” to ice cream at Coldstone Creamery. The auction provides an opportunity for students to spend time with professors in an informal setting and 100 percent of the money raised from the auction was donated to PACE. L.A.W. presented the check March 30 to Katherine Wood, the development coordinator of the Alachua center. Pictured from left are Janet Owens (3L), Wood and Amanda Perez (2L).

The money was raised through L.A.W.’s annual Professor’s Auction, which provides students the opportunity to bid on events donated by professors, such as dinner for four at a professor’s favorite restaurant and a weekend at a professor’s condominium at the beach. Thanks to record participation this year, L.A.W. was able to donate more than ever to the PACE Center for Girls which provides girls and young women an opportunity for a better future through education, counseling, training and advocacy. Thanks to all of the professors and students who participated in making the Professor’s Auction such a successful event.
