Pajcic & Pajcic Yard Golf breaks $1 million mark
With pledges still coming in, the 10th annual Pajcic & Pajcic Yard Golf Tournament raised more than $174,000 as of April 17, a record single-year donation making a total over the history of the event of more than $1 million for Jacksonville Area Legal Aid. In addition to law firm and corporate sponsorships, more than 250 people paid the entry fee for the afternoon of miniature golf and fellowship along the St. Johns River in Avondale. The Pajcics match sponsorships and entry fees to double the support for civil legal aid in Northeast Florida. “Yard golf keeps getting better every year. So many folks mention that they prefer donating to this event, knowing that we match their contributions dollar for dollar. It’s such a great way to have a fun afternoon with friends, while raising money for a most worthy cause,” Steve Pajcic said after the event. Jim Kowalski, president and CEO of JALA, said the contribution makes it possible for the civil legal aid law firm to cover its overhead expenses.
