RALEIGH, N.C. – The Campbell Public Interest Law Students Association (CPILSA) will hold its fifth annual silent auction fundraiser at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, April 5 at Vita Vite. All proceeds from the silent auction will support the group’s summer stipend program, which provides financial assistance to students working in unpaid public interest law internships.
Auction items will include a vacation rental, event tickets, restaurant gift cards, art, Campbell Law gear and much more. Bidding will begin at 6 p.m. and close at 7:30 p.m.
“CPILSA’s silent auction helps our students to explore public interest opportunities throughout the summer,” said CPILSA President and third-year student Natalie Klemann. “Proceeds raised from the silent auction allow us to provide stipends, which are in turn awarded to students who take on an unpaid summer internship. Many of these students would not be in a position to take advantage of these opportunities were it not for these stipends.”
CPILSA is currently soliciting auction items and donations to assist in the effort. If you would like to provide an item or assist in any way, contact Klemann at ndklemann0914@email.campbell.edu.
A student led initiative, CPILSA was founded in 2010 and strives to guide Campbell Law students to rewarding careers in public interest law.
