In 2012, the PJF raised a record $74,381, which enabled 51 law students to receive stipends for internships they otherwise would have been unable to accept due to financial constraints.
Each year the PJF selects a Hofstra Law graduate to receive an award in recognition of his or herdedication to public justice and public service. This year’s honoree was Putnam County District Attorney Adam B. Levy '92.
The PJF's 24th Annual Goods and Services Auction will take place on March 13 at the Maurice A. Deane School of Law at Hofstra University.
