Four on Friday: Hartman Simons Lends Helping Hand to Atlanta Humane Society

Hartman-Simons-Atlanta-Humane-Society-LogoWith the commercial real estate sector showing increased activity, this promises to be a busy spring at Hartman Simons. Nevertheless, we’re still taking some time out of our hectic schedules to help our four-legged friends.

Throughout the month of April, we will be working to raise money and supplies for an organization near and dear to our hearts: the Atlanta Humane Society (AHS). Below are four components of this month-long effort.

• Sponsorship of the Upcoming AHS Pet Parade. Hartman Simons has contributed a $1,000 sponsorship of the parade, which will be held at 11 a.m. on Saturday, April 21, at Atlantic Station.

The route for the parade is just over a mile long and winds through Atlantic Station. Walkers are welcome to bring their dogs, as long as the animals are on a leash and are up to date on their vaccinations.

Events surrounding the parade, which will be held rain or shine, will include an adopt-a-thon and various pet contests.

• Participating in the Parade. Hartman Simons attorneys and staff will be walking in the parade and are encouraging their friends, family and clients to do so as well as a member of the firm’s team. Registration is $30 in advance and $35 on the day of the event.

Each team member will receive an online fundraising page where friends and family members can support their participation by making a donation. The event web site will track how much money Hartman Simons and the other teams raise for AHS. Donations can be made online (which includes a small processing fee) or by check.

For more registration information, visit the parade’s website. To view Hartman Simons’ overall fundraising page and those of its individual team members, click here.

• Donating Supplies. The firm also will be collecting items needed by AHS. Requested supplies include bleach, non-clumping cat litter, dog bowls, laundry detergent, pet shampoo, towels, paper towels, copy paper and housetraining pads. For AHS’ complete wish list, click here.

• Jeans Days. Throughout the month, Hartman Simons attorneys and staff can wear jeans to work on Wednesdays if they bring $5 or a supply on the AHS’ wish list. The money will support the $1,000 sponsorship, with the firm contributing the rest.
