COLUMBIA, S.C. – Jim Irvin, a partner in Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough's Columbia office, has recently been elected to the Advisory Board for City Year Columbia.
As a member of City Year Columbia’s Advisory Board, Mr. Irvin will contribute to the development of strategic plans that will scale the number of young people in service in high-need urban schools with City Year, and increase their impact on student and school success. The City Year Columbia Advisory Board is a volunteer board that provides strategic direction for the organization on multiple fronts.
City Year is a national service organization founded in 1988 that unites young people of all backgrounds for a year of full-time service in high-need schools nationwide.

Mr. Irvin is also an active participant in other local nonprofit organizations. Over the past two years, Mr. Irvin has led the Firm's United Way Campaign for the Columbia Office, raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for local charities.
