ABOUT US
OUTREACH
Our practice is committed to providing time, expertise, and financial support locally and internationally. As a practice, we contribute to several area schools, Martha Jefferson Hospital Foundation and Marianne’s Room, Camp Holiday Trails, Muscular Dystrophy Association, Service Dogs of Virginia, among others. On an individual basis, our employees volunteer their time and financial support to the Charlottesville Free Clinic, area rescue squads, and Toy Lift, as well as local churches, schools, and athletic leagues.
Internationally, our practice contributes to orphanages and organizations touching the lives of children in China and beyond, including Love Without Boundaries, Bringing Hope to Children, and Half the Sky Foundation.
Love Without Boundaries began in 2003 after a group of adoptive parents came together to help save the life of one tiny boy in China. Learn more about how LWB is touching the lives of thousands of children.
