We invite you to join us in making our Thanksgiving Dinner next Monday not only a time for thanks, but also a time of giving!
When we volunteered at the Haven of Rest for Akron Law Cares day, we learned of a specific need that we each can help meet. The Haven of Rest offers many valuable services to the Akron community, one of which is a clothing room. They welcome gently used clothing, and they also are in need of packs of new underwear for men, women, and children.
Please let the spirit of giving enrich you as we begin the holiday season by participating in our Undie Monday drive – bring your donations with you to Thanksgiving Dinner next Monday!
