WASHINGTON, D.C., February 6, 2025 – Attorneys in Knobbe Martens’ Washington, D.C. office once again hosted the D.C. area AIPLA Women in IP Community Service Event benefitting Comfort Cases®, a Maryland-based nonprofit aimed at helping children in foster care.
During this year’s event, attendees packed 100 backpacks with essentials and comfort items to be donated to children entering foster care. Knobbe Martens partners Devanie DuFour and Andrea Cheek have organized the event for the last several years in conjunction with the AIPLA.
“We have been proud to support the incredible work Comfort Cases® is doing over the years and are grateful for the opportunity to bring together women in the IP community to support this worthwhile cause,” said Ms. DuFour.
The AIPLA Women in IP Community Service Event is a nationwide effort to help those in need and organized by AIPLA chapters throughout the country. The events provide an opportunity for women to build relationships with fellow intellectual property professionals while giving back to their local community.
