Dear Friend,
We are almost there! I am so excited about our virtual benefit tomorrow night.
With exceptional speakers, including Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro, Young Center Founder and Executive Director Maria Woltjen, and Former Unaccompanied Child and Young Center Client Vida Opoku, and performances from the Grammy-nominated folk ensemble Sones de México, our Spring Soirée will be an inspiring celebration of immigrant children and 18 years of service by Young Center Waymakers. We are also thrilled to celebrate Maria Woltjen who will be retiring at the end of June! Join us to send her off with a hoorah, lots of love, and well-wishes.

As an immigration law firm, we understand all too well the unique challenges that unaccompanied and separated immigrant children face while in deportation proceedings. These children are in custody and have endured a harrowing past and journey before getting to the United States. The Young Center is their sentinel and their champion, ensuring their best interests and safety. It is our honor to support the work of an organization that fights for the most vulnerable immigrants in our care.
-Beata Leja Partner Minsky McCormick & Hallagan, P.C.
