Community Service
We believe that every person can make a difference in the community and every person has something to contribute.
We strongly encourage all of our attorneys and staff to donate their time to help those in the community, whether as volunteers, fundraisers, board members, or participants in service projects. Our people mentor underserved students, help build houses for those who otherwise would not have shelter, serve food to the hungry, raise awareness about important causes, collect everything from food to toys to clothing to school supplies, and participate—sometimes by the hundreds—in our events to raise money and awareness for our charity partners.
Every year we give community service awards to individuals who demonstrate the strongest commitment to giving back to the community and making a difference. The “Unsung Hero” award recognizes an individual who devotes a substantial amount of their personal time to improving the lives of those in the community, with little or no past recognition. The “Inspirational Leader” award recognizes an individual who motivates other people to get involved in community service activities and leads the way in participating in those activities, usually with tremendous results for our charity partners. All Seyfarthians are eligible, and each winner receives a $5,000 donation to their chosen charity.
