Ginarte Gives Back!
Helping those in need is something that Ginarte Gonzalez & Winograd, LLP personal injury attorneys firmly believe in. We are always giving back to charities or donating our time to an amazing cause. The month of January is no different. Around this time of year people are receiving gifts from the holidays and starting new habits at the start of the new year. A common gift during this time is clothing; family and friends give new clothes to their loved ones. We decided to help who may not be as lucky to receive new clothes during this time.
We asked all of our personal injury attorneys and legal staff members to clean out there closets, look through those storage bins, clean out the attic and donate the clothes they no longer wear to those who are less fortunate. The clothing drive ran the full month of January so we could get a large donation amount to provide the Salvation Army with.
The clothing drive was embraced with open arms, with our personal injury attorneys and staff members bringing in old tuxedos, suits, women’s dress clothes, nice shoes, as well as a large amount of kids clothing. These donations will help the less fortunate during a time when the weather is colder, allowing them to add that extra layer that may help them get through these cold nights.
Newark Salvation Army
Here, at Ginarte Law Firm we decided to use the clothes gathered from our clothing drive should be donated to the Newark, NJ Salvation Army’s Rehabilitation Center. This program helps those who are in need get back on the right track to rebuilding their lives. The program helps provide adults with a safe community and place to start over after their troubled pasts.
We decided this would be the perfect place to donate to, since our firm is built on helping those who are less fortunate. The program as well as our values worked hand in hand, making it an almost perfect fit for the clothing drive.
Although our attorneys and staff members may never see the faces who have benefitted from donated and vice versa, knowing that these clothes will get a new found use is all the joy we need. Knowing that these clothes could help give someone a new lease on life is a benefit that could not be felt by any other action.
One of our missions here at Ginarte Law Firm is to always give back to the community whenever we possibly can. Our staff is always encouraging new charities or community service projects to use their time to promote as much good as possible. Each month at Ginarte we have a new community outreach program where we try to give our time, or donations to a different charity/cause to help those who are less fortunate.
