The Dale Minami Public Interest Fellowship

In addition to honoring alumni and leaders who have made significant contributions to the Asian Pacific American legal community, the Dinner raises funds toward the endowment of the DM Public Interest Fellowship, which provides critical financial support to outstanding individuals who commit to serving the public interest. Minami Fellows are selected for their diverse backgrounds, record of exceptional academic and professional accomplishment, leadership in community service, and commitment to social justice and public interest work. The 2020 fellowship recipient will be honored at the event.

We invite you to support this important endeavor by attending our dinner and/or by serving as an event sponsor. The dinner offers a great opportunity for Berkeley Law alumni to reconnect with former classmates. It is also the ideal venue for law firms and members of the business community to meet Berkeley Law students and alumni.
