Pond Lehocky Giordano will once again be spreading holiday cheer over the weeks leading up to the new year by contributing to local and national charities selected by the firm's clients, partners, attorneys and staff.
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 1, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The holidays may look different this year, but the needs are greater than ever. That's why Pond Lehocky Giordano is once again spreading holiday cheer over the next five weeks by contributing to 25 local and national charities with its fourth annual 25 Days of Giving. This is one of many initiatives that the firm sponsors through its charitable arm, Pond Lehocky Community.
Beginning December 1, the firm is holding gift drives and donations for charities across the country. Traditionally, the firm's staff and attorneys have volunteered at local non-profits throughout the month, in addition to monetary donations, but it has since transitioned to virtual events and donations, considering the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
