To encourage its employees to perform volunteer work, Burr Ridge, Illinois law firm Codilis and Associates donates to local charities. Alongside fellow law firms in the Illinois State Bar Association (ISBA), Codilis & Associates joined the ISBA’s Lawyers Feeding Illinois Project, an initiative created by Feeding Illinois, its overarching organization. The ISBA created the Feeding Illinois food drive to raise funds to purchase meals for local families, distributed via eight local food banks and smaller food pantries and soup kitchens. Law firms across the ISBA formed teams to compete over who could raise the most money. The fundraising period ran between February 18 and March 1, 2013, and the organization reached its goal, money equal to a million meals, on March 13. The 2,000 participating teams’ efforts paid for about 4.6 million meals. Once tallied, the ISBA announced noteworthy teams in April 2013. The Attorneys’ Title Guaranty Fund (ATGF), Inc., raised $25,395, the most of any team. Donations from Heyl, Royster, Voelker, and Allen, P.C., equated to the most food, weighing 2,547 lbs. via WordPress https://ift.tt/irIlotE
