Open Challenge to All Professional Colleagues
Rick and Anthony extend an open challege to all colleagues to donate any available time or funds to the charity, Voices for Children for Hillsborough County. Every year in Hillsborough County, thousands of children are trapped in domestic situations rife with hopelessness. Even after the children are rescued by law enforcement, the great majority of them have no control over their futures and little chance of success before the courts. Voices for Children works tirelessly on behalf of such children to appoint interested and able guardians ad litem who will speak loudly for them when given the opportunity.
As explained at the website, www.vfcgal.org, there are various ways that attorneys in the Tampa Bay Area can provide assistance. First, they can contribute funds that will facilitate the appointment of guardians. Currently, the program can serve only about thirty-five percent of these children. Second, attorneys and members of their staffs can utilize their personal time to volunteer as guardians.
Alvarez Garcia has contributed to Voices for Children by assigning the fees ordinarily paid in the firm's service as guardians ad litem in matters before the civil courts. Rick and Anthony, once again, challenge their colleagues in the Tampa Bay Area to do the same.
