Fundraising Campaigns

Hello,

Just curious of the associates who still remain at the firm. Will you participate in any fundraising campaigns and have it taken out of your paycheck?

Yes. I did a nominal, one-time payment with a directed donation to my charity of choice.

@sa be sure to use the firm's matching program. There is an employer match one-to-one for any nonprofits you've donated to up to $500 per year. On Giving Tuesday around Thanksgiving last year they doubled their match. Look for "charitable matching program."

Not this year. I’ll donate direct to charities I choose.

Absolutely not. I will not help them get their stupid tax write offs.

That would be a big NO. I will donate directly to the United Way.

PP loves to say EJ donates to make herself feel better about making everything else in her life about money. I will donate outside of EJ.

It was always a way for General Partners to lessen their tax burden 2x per year (and try to get us all to go along with it).

Nothing more, nothing less.

“Core Causes” indeed. 👎🏼

Nope, not going to let these sl--eballs use my money to falsely tout how they are helping communities.

I haven't participated in any of these campaigns in more than 10 years.
