Atlanta Legal Aid's Great Whiskey Debate Goes Virtual
April 03, 2020
Concerns over COVID-19 have led many legal nonprofits to postpone spring fundraisers. However, COVID-19 won’t stop Atlanta Legal Aid Society from having its Great Whiskey Debate, an event that raised $20,000 last year.
Shea Conlan, the group’s development and communications coordinator, says, “We are recognizing that we still may be social-distancing in May—and it’s hard to get people to buy tickets or sponsorships for a live event right now.” There won’t be any mingling this year, Conlan said, but the event, now dubbed the Great Virtual Whiskey Debate is still happening on May 14.
