At Claery & Hammond, LLP, we are proud to say that 2016 has been a very good year for our community efforts. This year, we continued our philanthropic pursuit to even higher levels than we possibly could have imagined.
So far, we have donated thousands of dollars in scholarship funds to the University of California Santa Cruz (UC Santa Cruz Merit Scholarship), the University of Maryland’s Honor’s College Gift Fund, and to the Peregrine Project, an independent school dedicated to enhancing children’s capacity to learn, think and do through a child-centered curriculum.
We have also provided thousands of dollars to a philanthropic organization in San Diego, California.
