40th Annual Children & Families Holiday Party

The Legal Aid Society, the nation’s largest and most influential social justice law firm, held its 40th annual Children & Families Holiday Party this December at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine. Each year, Legal Aid staff members join volunteers from law firms and corporate advocates from around the city to spread holiday cheer, providing toys and gift cards to over 300 children of low-income New Yorkers. The event serves the communities Legal Aid represents, including our clients who are unsheltered as well as those with incarcerated caregivers.

Thank You
