Imprint Program 2024
|
OWLS Mary Leonard Chapter, Marion County Bar Association and North Salem High School are proud to announce that we are once again sponsoring the Imprint Program! |
|
Imprint is a valuable and rewarding way for lawyers and other professionals to give back to our local youth!
Mentors are matched with a North Salem High School student at an in-person orientation meeting in on February 15. The pairs read an assigned book and exchange a series of two letters each discussing the book during the months of February through April. Everyone comes back together at the end of the program on April 25 to celebrate with an in-person gathering at Willamette University. Imprint provides students with an opportunity to meet and interact with local lawyers and other professionals.
Register today to get matched up with a student!
