AHTCC Shoots for Community Involvement

March 30, 2006

On March 29, 2006 the Coalition cosponsored the 19th Annual Home Court Charity Basketball Game.  The annual event was started by a group of Georgetown law students in 1987 and pits Georgetown University Law Center faculty and staff (the Hoya Lawyas) against Members of Congress and their staff (the Hill's Angels).  All proceeds for the event benefit the Washington Legal Clinic for the Homeless, a nonprofit corporation dedicated to providing free legal services to homeless individuals and families in Washington, DC.  Over the past 19 years, Home Court has raised over $2 million to support the Clinic's efforts. 

In the closely contested game, the Hill's Angels, coached by Representative Stephanie Tubbs Jones (D-OH), defeated the Hoya Lawyas 34 to 32.  Other Congressional participants included Representatives Kendrick Meek (D-FL), Timothy Ryan (D-OH), William Clay, Jr. (D-MO), Gene Green (D-TX), and Jeff Flake (R-AZ).

Coalition representatives Francine Friedman, Amanda McGovern, and Victoria Spielman handed out AHTCC water bottles to attendees.  AHTCC also sponsored the popular half-time shoot out between Georgetown University Law Center students aiming to win free books for the next semester.
