As a firm, Kaplin Stewart gave to the community in at least
two ways.
First, we participated in the Delaware Valley's Volunteers of
America's Family Holiday Adoption program. VOA-DV helps
over 600 families in the Delaware Valley over the holidays. They
screen and register every family, obtaining all the pertinent
information for gift buying (sizes, wishes, etc.). Kaplin Stewart
adopted nine families, purchasing the gift requests for each family
member. The firm sponsored a pizza dinner for everyone to wrap
the gifts before donating them to VOA-DV.
Kaplin Stewart also ran a food drive for Philabundance's
Camp Out for Hunger program. Last year the Camp Out
collected 683 tons of food - the largest food drive in the country!
Philabundance distributes all contributions to local food banks.

Once again, Warren & McGraw, LLC participated in the Toys
for Tots program, serving as a registered drop-off location for new,
unwrapped toys.

Wisler Pearlstine takes great pride in supporting numerous
charitable and non-profit organizations throughout the year. In
2017, among other activities, our attorneys and staff organized
multi-phased collection of food and personal care items for the
Daily Bread Community Food Pantry in Collegeville, PA, and
again collected and donated new toys for the children served by
the Food Pantry for the holiday season. The firm also acted as a
key sponsor of events for Angel Flight East, an organization that
provides free air transportation to individuals who are in need of
medical treatment.

I helped plan a holiday charity luncheon at my club, all
proceeds for which went to Laurel House. As part of that planning,
I hand-made 200 table place setting favors (just little candy treats
in pretty packaging, but making 200 takes lots and lots of hours).
In addition, my daughter's school caroled at a retirement home
and I joined them.

Throughout 2017, Wisler Pearlstine's attorneys and staff were
integral in supporting various other organizations, including
the Montgomery Bar Foundation, Legal Aid, local education
foundations, the Golden Slipper Club and Charities, the Devereux
Foundation, the Variety Club, Relay-for-Life, and many, many
more. The firm again participated in Lee National Denim Day,
and for the fourth consecutive year, we saluted the men and
women of our country's armed forces through the Girl Scouts of
America's Cookies for the Troops program. Wisler Pearlstine's
attorneys and staff also serve as dedicated volunteers, directors, and
board members of over 30 charitable and non-profit organizations
in their own communities.

Throughout 2017, the attorneys and staff at Timoney
Knox have given their support to approximately 30 different
organizations. We proudly support the efforts of our Upper
Dublin neighbors including The Mattie Dixon Community
Cupboard, Ambler Main Street, Fort Washington Fire Company
No. 1, and the Upper Dublin Police Department. We go beyond
our neighborhood by backing and assisting the incredible work
of MCAP, Wills For Heroes, Kelly Ann Dolan Memorial Fund,
Wissahickon Valley Watershed Association, and the Marine Corps
Law Enforcement Foundation.

These are just a few of the many examples of generosity
which continue to characterize our members each and every day.
Thank you to each of you who give of yourselves throughout the
year, including those who ensure fair access to justice across the
county by supporting the Montgomery Bar Foundation, and
by volunteering through the Court, county service agencies, or
organizations such as Legal Aid of Southeastern PA, MCAP, and
countless others making a difference. We thank you for all you
do - whether with your firms or through your communities,
publicly or behind-the-scenes - to demonstrate that members
of the MBA are recognized throughout the county by what
they give.
