Two Sessions: Session I: 9:30 a.m. - 11:30 a.m. or Session II: 1 p.m. - 3 p.m.
Children of all ages will have the opportunity to decorate their very own gingerbread houses at the Nassau County Bar Association. Upon successful completion of the course "curriculum," graduating students will receive their creations as well as a diploma in the Degree in Gingerbreadology.
While the kids have fun, they are also helping those less fortunate. All proceeds from the annual holiday event are donated to the WE CARE Fund, the philanthropic arm of the Nassau County Bar Association. WE CARE funds are raised by the legal profession and the community-at-large at various fund raising activities throughout the year. Nearly 100% raised is distributed through charitable grants to improve the quality of life for children, the elderly and others in need throughout Nassau County. In the 20 years since its founding, Nassau County attorneys have given $2 million to more than 100 local charitable causes.
