2024 Kandler Awards Celebration Sponsorship
Each year, we remember Gerry Kandler, former president of ACLU Delaware, and honor the work of members of the community who exemplify his tireless commitment to the defense of all Delawareans’ civil liberties.
This year we are so pleased to be honoring Dr. Ann Aviles, Associate Professor at the University of Delaware and Co-Chair of the HOMES Campaign DE, and La Esperanza, the second largest multi-service agency for Hispanic immigrants in Delaware. We are also celebrating Arnold & Porter attorney Peta Gordon with the Darrow Award for her exceptional contributions to education equity in Delaware.
We are once again holding a hybrid event. Our main celebration will take place in-person in New Castle County, and another in-person celebration option will take place in Sussex County – or you can watch the event virtually via our Zoom livestream from wherever you’d like!
