‘Tis the Season to Give
Lohman Company believes in engaging with our local community to bring a positive, measurable change to our neighborhoods, where we work and live. We had a lot of fun this year supporting the following charities:
Mesa United Way
We held several events that our employees participated in to help raise funds for Mesa United Way.
1. Our employees raided their piggy banks, dug deep into their couch cushions, searched their cars, check the bottom of their purse, found money on the ground …. all in an effort for their team to win at Penny Wars. It was a fun event that brought in $230 with an additional donation from the Firm.
2. Our employees continued their generosity and participated in Mesa United Way’s annual giving campaign. These monetary donations help support Mesa United Way programs to help strengthen our community.
3. JaKelle’s Christmas Box through Helen’s Hope Chest:
This program provides gifts at no cost to foster families and their kids. Lohman Company created a “Toy Drive” and collected over $600 in toys to support JaKelle’s Christmas Box.
Sunshine Acres
Each year we select a charity to donate to in lieu of mailing out holiday cards. This year our charity of choice was Sunshine Acres located in Mesa, AZ. Their mission is to provide a loving, wholesome home for children who are separated from their parents.
Panel Discussions:
We had a few professionals that were proudly chosen to present in the following webinars:
- Cati Piorkowski, Partner, was a panelist in the State Bar of Arizona’s webinar “Entrance and Exit Strategies: A Succession Planning Guide to Buying or Selling a Law Practice” in June 2021. She presented on Tax Implications.
