Baker Sterchi Sponsors Saint Louis Bar Foundation Spirit of Justice Gala
On February 17, Baker Sterchi Cowden & Rice proudly sponsored the 2024 Spirit of Justice (SOJ) Gala held at The Chase Park Plaza in St. Louis, Missouri.
The firm had the privilege of hosting Lynne Jackson, an SOJ award recipient and great-great granddaughter of Dred and Harriet Scott, at its table. Jackson was accompanied by two members of the Dred Scott Heritage Foundation Board, alongside Baker Sterchi attorneys Laura Beasley and Paul Venker.
The Spirit of Justice Celebration, hosted by the Saint Louis Bar Foundation, is an annual event held to recognizing individuals and organizations who have demonstrated accomplishment, leadership, and integrity in upholding the rule of law. This event honors those actively contributing to the improvement and maintenance of the administration of justice. The selection of SOJ award recipients is a meticulous process, involving nominations submitted to the Foundation and subsequent deliberation by the SOJ Awards Committee.
The Saint Louis Bar Foundation, the charitable arm of the Bar Association of St. Louis, is dedicated to supporting justice, legal education, and public service. It provides grants, scholarships, and hosts events to enhance legal knowledge and promote access to justice. Venker is a past president and current board member of the Foundation.
