The AVLF Cup is a competition for law firms and accounting service firms, but partnering with corporations is HIGHLY encouraged. Firms that partner with corporate clients will receive 20 bonus points if 5 or more from client partner give to the AVLF Cup. If 10 or more individuals from a client partner contribute, you will receive 30 bonus points.

Yes! When you volunteer, your team receives points to help increase your chances of winining. In addition, the team in each group with the most volunteer hours will win the Cup.  

The annual gift from the firm DOES not count. Gifts from individuals count 5 points for the firm. A recurring gift established in the current year will count for 10 points. A recurring gift is a pledge to give a set amount of funds monthly. This is set up through an online system and credit card information is required.

This is a year round competition. It starts on January 1 and ends December 31. As this is the first year, we officially announced the competition on April 5th. You can structure your giving period for your firm on when you think you might be most successful in raising the most money. We know there is a lot going on and a lot of asks. You can make this your own!

Donations or pledges must be recorded by December 15th, and Firms receiving awards will be announced before December 31st.

Awards will be given to firm/s from each Downtown Atlanta Park Group who 1) raises the most money and 2) has the most donors. If this is the same firm then they will get one award.
