  • Public Interest Law Foundation Auction and Gala February 27th, 2020 6:00 p.m. Program and Catalog

  • Welcome,

    On behalf of the board of directors, the executive officers, and the dedicated members of the Ohio Public Interest Law Foundation (PILF), we would like to welcome you to the 2020 PILF Live and Silent Auction. Tonight’s event is sponsored by The Ohio State University Moritz College of Law.

    All proceeds go to fellowships for Moritz College of Law students working in the public interest field.

    PILF is a student-run, nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting public service throughout the Moritz community. We strive to connect students who have hopes of working in public interest and government legal positions with opportunities to advance their goals. Through programs such as our PILF Summer Fellowships, we bring students together with the innovative and dedicated legal professionals who practice public interest work in the community. All proceeds from tonight’s event will help fund our PILF Summer Fellowships.

    PILF would not be where it is today without the efforts of our excellent faculty board members, Professor Arthur F. Greenbaum and Professor Stephanie Hoffer, and board members, Eleni Christofides, Jacob Selsor, and Erin Hassett. In addition, this auction would not be complete without our faculty auctioneers, Dean Daniel Tokaji, Professor Stephanie Hoffer, and Professor Arthur F. Greenbaum. Finally, we extend our sincere gratitude to the college for its support of PILF and to Dean Lincoln L. Davies for his personal efforts in ensuring our continued success.

    Moritz faculty, staff, and students, as well as countless members of the community have generously contributed all of the items that are up for auction. Thank you for your generous donations and thank you for your continued support of PILF.

    Everything you see here tonight is the work of our volunteers, who are truly the lifeblood of PILF. Students, faculty, and staff have all dedicated their time and talents to make this auction possible. To everyone who has volunteered, we cannot thank you enough. Thank you for taking the time to attend our event and for your continued support of PILF. We truly hope that you enjoy this evening.

    Happy bidding!

  • Public Sector Award Winner: Ohio Access to Justice Foundation

    The Ohio Access to Justice Foundation (formerly known as the Ohio Legal Assistance Foundation), celebrated its 25th year of meeting the legal needs of Ohio’s low-income individuals in 2019. Since 1994, the Ohio Access to Justice Foundation, has worked tirelessly to fund civil legal help for children, seniors, veterans, and domestic violence survivors across the State of Ohio regardless of income. In addition to providing critical dollars to fund civil legal aid throughout Ohio, the foundation funds Justice for All Fellowships, supports pro bono efforts and Access to Justice initiatives. Additionally, the foundation annually supports PILF by sponsoring a full summer fellowship. We are so grateful for its support. In 2018, the foundation provided over $18 million to Ohio’s Legal Aids, which helped to fund over 118,000 hours of pro bono service to Ohio’s low-income individuals. It is an honor to present this award to an organization that has given so much to the public interest over the last 25 years. May the next 25 years build on these successes to help even more Ohioans access critically important legal services.

  • Public Service Award Winner: Christine Donovan

    Ms. Donovan has dedicated much of her career to serving the public in some capacity. While attending Moritz from 2010 to 2013, Christine was active in PILF, Education Law Society, Ohio State Journal of Criminal Law, Moot Court, and Dispute Resolution and Youth. Upon graduation, Christine was named a Public Service Fellow with Dean’s Special Recognition; an honor bestowed on those give between 250 and 499 hours of volunteer legal service to public interest and government entities. Her work experience during law school included the Legal Aid Society of Columbus, and the

    Ohio Legal Assistance Foundation (now the Ohio Access to Justice Foundation). After graduation, Christine worked as a fundraiser for The Ohio State University serving the College of Medicine, where she worked to secure over $1.6 million dollars in cash and estate gifts. In 2015, Christine moved to Cristo Rey Columbus High School where she served as the Director of Development, and later the Director of Advancement and Strategic Planning. While there, she grew fundraising revenue by 188 percent over a three-year period. During her time there, Christine also established the organization’s first planned giving initiative, launched a permanent major gifts program, and instituted a donor relations program, including mailings and a donor recognition event. In late 2019, Christine took a position as a Donor Services Officer for the Columbus Foundation, one of the top ten largest community foundations in the United States. Their mission is to improve the community and quality of life in Central Ohio. Christine is responsible for providing philanthropic information and assistance to individuals, families, businesses, and nonprofit organizations in order to build the Foundation’s endowment through charitable giving. Despite these vast and changing experience, one thing has remained constant — Christine’s devotion to PILF. As the President of PILF, she oversaw a 45% increase of fundraising revenues. After graduation, Christine chose to remain on PILF’s Board of Directors until her retirement from the Board this fall, mentoring further presidents, helping to ensure that PILF operated smoothly and effectively, and assisting the organization in any other way she could. It is our pleasure to grant this award to Christine Donovan for not only her devotion to PILF, but for her devotion to the public good in general.

Donor: Pat and Gracie’s Kitchen + Tavern Value: $20 #221 2015 Domaine Blu-Haut Occultum Lapiden 92 points – Wine Enthusiast Gamy and herbal characteristics are front and center on the nose of this wine, supported by a fruity core of baked plum, black cherry and raspberry. The palate boasts similar complexity and intensity, with additional hints of graphite and crushed slate. The texture is round and plush at first, but a solid grip of structuring tannins unfolds on the midpalate and lingers long into the spicy, dark, licorice-fueled finish. Drink now–2023. Donor: Mimi Dane Value: $28

  • #222 2017 Aubert Hudson Vineyard Chardonnay Robert Parker's Wine Advocate – 98 points The 2017 Chardonnay Hudson features super intense notes of freshly squeezed lemon, lime zest, warm apricots and honeydew melon with hints of hay, paraffin wax and crushed nuts plus a waft of cinnamon toast. The full-bodied palate is very tightly wound with electric tension and has loads of citrusy accents coming through on the very, very long finish. Donor: Mimi Dane Value: $148 #271 2013 William Selyem Sonoma County Pinot Noir 91 points – Wine Enthusiast A full-bodied blend from different vineyard sites, this wine celebrates darker, denser aspects of black cherry and cranberry alongside a savory, herbal component that persists on the palate, finished up by a mouthwatering mix of orange and chocolate. Complex and robust in tannin, it needs time to breathe before being enjoyed. Donor: Mimi Dane Value: $65 #273 2017 William Selyem Los Papera Vineyard Zinfandel 93 points – Wine Enthusiast This wine from a historic, old-vine site offers tones of candied cherry and ginger that are met by Christmas cake and baking spice. The palate is soft and silky in texture, with plenty of fresh, juicy acidity for balance. Donor: Mimi Dane Value: $105

    #272 2015 William Selyem Olivet Lane Pinot Noir 95 points - Wine Enthusiast Situated in the Santa Rosa Plain area of the Russian River Valley AVA, the historic Olivet Lane Vineyard always delivers a nose of dried rose petals and a bowl of black cherries. Fresh ground nutmeg, subtle notes of vanilla, and bergamot complement the rich and brooding aromatic profile. The palate is equally as compelling and offers a round and persistent flavor of black cherry and cherry pit. The acid is perfectly balanced and is seamlessly integrated into the black tea-like architecture of tannins. A wonderful lift of citrus and nutmeg on the finish keeps the palate refreshing and adds intrigue. Donor: Mimi Dane Value: $98 #274 2016 Arthur Chardonnay 90 points – Wine Enthusiast Quite distinct from the winery's similarly priced Rose Rock Chardonnay, this is more precise and firm, with crisp apple and spice flavors. Oak aging has lent a rather dominant bourbon barrel scent, which comes across on the palate as liquorous. It finishes on a gentle, buttery note. Value: $37

  • #275 2013 Guardiola 92 points – Wine Enthusiast Peach blossom, Spanish broom, white flower and mineral aromas create a lovely bouquet. Made entirely with Chardonnay, the savory, creamy palate offers yellow apple, mature pear, nectarine, pastry and mineral alongside fresh acidity. Endowed with depth and balance, this will continue to develop over the next several years. Drink 2015–2020. Donor: Mimi Dane Value: $43 #276 2014 Robert Young Scion Cabernet Aggregated Critics Score - 89 The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Scion is another Alexander Valley release and it’s made in slightly less volume compared to the Big Rock Block cuvée. Aged in 50% new French oak, it has more precision and purity in its crème de cassis, lead pencil, chocolate, and crushed rock driven bouquet. Concentrated, full-bodied, with rocking minerality, it's a seriously good effort that has enough tannins to warrant 2-4 years of bottle age and I suspect will keep for 15-20 years if you're so inclined. Donor: Mimi Dane Value: $60 #277 2008 Joseph Swan Rousanne-Marsanne This wine is light in body and well made, with a full body and moderate acidity. It offers the richness of ripe apricot and citrus flavors and a dry, full-bodied mouthfeel. Donor: Mimi Dane Value: $45

    #278 Two Bottles of 2016 Vouvray La Haut Lieu Sec 92 rating—PureWow Meet the bottle of wine that’ll never let you down. It combines a riot of flavors, including chamomile tea, lemon, honey, citrus fruit, pears, apples and mountain earth. You can pair it with whatever you feel like, from sushi to lean meats to salads. Like your favorite pair of jeans that go with everything from patent-leather pumps to Adidas, it’ll always feel just right. Donor: Mimi Dane Value: $72 #279 2014 William Selyem Drake Estate Chardonnay 94 points – Wine Enthusiast This Guerneville-area estate is one of the last picked by the producer, and it delivers enviable depth and complexity. Highlights include a dollop of apricot jam beside rich honeycomb and toasty oak. Juicy acidity supports its creamy tendency toward tropical flavor, as streaks of citrus fiercely protect its freshness.
