SUMMARY:United Way WALK 4 WARMTH
DESCRIPTION:The best way to end family homelessness is to prevent it from happening in the first place.  \nYou can help do that when you Walk 4 Warmth.  \nMore than 17\,000 families in our community struggle each month to stay warm\, keep a roof overhead\, and put a meal on the table. All it takes is a single upset\, a temporary job loss\, or an unexpected medical bill and suddenly the security of home is in jeopardy. \nA little help with utility or rent assistance can keep a family from falling into homelessness. \nJoin a community of people united to make sure no Anchorage family is left out in the cold. Monies raised will go to rent and utility assistance for Anchorage families in need. The walk starts at First Presbyterian Church of Anchorage\, 616 West 10th Avenue and ends at the Anchorage Museum for the exhibition premiere of Evicted and a panel discussion focused on homelessness in Anchorage featuring Michele Brown\, United Way of Anchorage President & CEO. \nRegistration is free.

Please join us at 12:00 noon EDT on March 18\, 2020 as lawyers He Jing and Lyu Pei of Anjie Law Firm in Beijing discuss what the agreement may mean for US companies\, especially those in the cheese and wine industries\, exporting their products to China\, \nE-Commerce Law – March 19\, 2020China’s new E-Commerce Law came into effect in January 2019 and introduced several provisions aimed at tackling the online offer of counterfeit products. The new framework increases accountability of vendors\, empowers platforms\, fosters their cooperation with rights holders\, and tighten sanctions for violations. Please join us at 12:00 noon EDT on March 19\, 2020 as lawyer Michele Ferrante of Ferrante Intellectual Property (Beijing\, Shanghai\, Hong Kong) explains how US companies may use the E-Commerce Law to enforce their rights in China. \nThe dial-in number for all three webinars is the same: \n888-455-7193 or 1-210-883-9133Passcode: 1781556#One tap: 888-455-7193\, 1781556# \nParticipants can join the event directly by pointing their browser at:https://www.mymeetings.com/nc/join.php?i=RWXW9991377&p=1781556&t=cAudience passcode: 1781556Conference number: RWXW9991377
