Oregon Women Lawyers

Oregon Women Lawyers Foundation

The OWLS Foundation is Oregon Women Lawyers’ 501(c)(3) “sister” organization. The Foundation’s mission is to educate and support women and minorities in accessing and participating in the justice system.

To accomplish this mission, the Foundation raises funds and makes grants supporting organizations and projects designed to give women and minorities greater access to and a better understanding of the justice system.

Each year, the OWLS Foundation hosts an auction in conjunction with OWLS' Roberts Deiz Awards Dinner. A silent auction is held immediately before the dinner, and a short live auction accompanies the awards presentation at the dinner. Proceeds benefit the OWLS Foundation, which makes grants to organizations around Oregon that help women and minorities secure access to the justice system.

The 2014 OWLS Foundation Auction is on Friday, March 14, 2014 at The Nines Hotel Ballroom, 5:00 p.m.
