Foley Receives Corporate Philanthropy Award from Boys & Girls Clubs of America
Recognition Underscores Foley’s Deep Commitment to Citizenship and Diversity Values
Foley & Lardner LLP is pleased to announce that the firm received the Corporate Philanthropy Award from Boys & Girls Clubs of America in recognition of the firm’s support for the youth-development organization and efforts to create great futures for America’s kids and teens.
“We are truly honored to receive this prestigious award and proud to join an exclusive group of award recipients, including some of the most recognizable and leading companies in the United States,” said Daljit Doogal, Foley Chairman and CEO. “This award is a testament to our attorneys’ and business professionals’ collective and unwavering commitment to our core value of citizenship and supporting the communities we serve. We look forward to continuing our work and building on our momentum to do even more with the local Clubs.”
Foley is one of eight national partners – including The Coca-Cola Company, Family Dollar, NASCAR, Pinterest, and Planet Fitness – to be nationally recognized for its support of young people and investment in Boys & Girls Clubs of America’s mission.
Since becoming the first law firm to partner with Boys & Girls Clubs of America on a national scale in 2021, all of Foley’s 22 U.S. offices have engaged with local Clubs on programs and initiatives that are responsive to the Clubs’ needs in that community — with a focus on building more inclusive and equitable futures. The firm has given more than 5,000 hours implementing mentoring programs, internship opportunities, education efforts, book and backpack drives, an author series, beautification projects, and multiple other events to promote safe and positive environments for young people.
