2024 Inspiration Awards

Inspiration Awards

One of the law school's signature annual events, the Inspiration Awards celebrate members of our community who demonstrate extraordinary commitment to public interest and public service.

The 2025 EPIC Inspiration Awards will be held on Tuesday, February 4, 2025, at 6 pm in Tull Auditorium at Emory Law. Click here to sponsor or to register to join us for this gala event.

The 2025 Inspiration Awards will honor these public interest champions:

Unsung Devotion to Those Most in Need
Nneka Ewulonu, Staff Attorney, ACLU of Georgia

Outstanding Leadership in the Public Interest
Jennifer Stolarski, Chief Assistant District Attorney, Office of the DeKalb County District Attorney

Lifetime Commitment to Public Service
Claudia S. Saari 87L, Circuit Public Defender, DeKalb County (retired)

In addition to bringing together our community to celebrate public service, this event is the primary fundraiser for EPIC's summer grants, which provide stipends for students who work in otherwise unfunded public interest positions. We hope you will join us for the celebration!
