Firm Donates $157,000 to
Haitian Earthquake Relief Efforts

Following the recent series of devastating earthquakes in Haiti, the WSGR Foundation—the philanthropic arm of the firm and its partners—made a $50,000 donation to the American Red Cross. To further help with the relief efforts, the firm offered to match employee contributions to the American Red Cross up to an additional $50,000.

The matching-funds campaign drew to a close on February 1. The results are indicative of the generosity of our attorneys and staff, with individual donations amounting to more than $57,000. Along with the firm's matching donation of $50,000 and the $50,000 contribution from the WSGR Foundation, the total comes to more than $157,000 to help the earthquake victims get the shelter, healthcare, food, clothing, and other materials they so urgently need.

We thank all our employees for their generous spirit, and wish the people of Haiti courage and hope as they rebuild their lives and restore their communities.
