Over 500 attorneys will participate in the Annual Women Everywhere Community
Service Day. Attorneys will take their many talents and put them to use as volunteers
for one of 30 different agencies. Attorneys will be planting gardens, building
playgrounds, painting waiting rooms, organizing supply closets and providing cooking
classes. Other attorneys will be giving seminars regarding Orders of Protection.
It is one thing to represent a person in an Order of Protection Hearing, and quite
another to demonstrate for a group how to write a petition to ensure that it is
heard and granted if the situation warrants it. Our volunteers will be ready to
do whatever it takes to make the day a success.
You can sign up individually and meet new friends or your
firm can sponsor one of the agencies and "adopt"
it. When you adopt an agency, you bring all the supplies and
woman power to carry out the task that the organization is
looking to have completed. Needless to say, we are always
looking for firms to adopt agencies. It is a great way to
interact with your colleagues on a whole new level and and
to have a good time discussing something other than your case
load. There is also the benefit of interacting with the people
from the agency itself. The possibilities are endless as to
the task you will be performing. Encourage a friend to come
with you and you'll know that Together, We Can Make a Difference!
