From education and arts to legal aid and fostering youth, Lesser, Lesser, Landy & Smith provided more than $350,000 in financial support to nearly 100 charitable and civic organizations in Palm Beach and Martin counties in 2023.
Among the many highlights: The Firm was the Presenting Sponsor of the American Cancer Society’s Men Wear Pink Campaign in Palm Beach County, and Managing Partner Gary Lesser served as an ambassador to the fundraising effort. Lesser served as Co-Chair of the annual Sen. Philip D. Lewis Center Luncheon benefiting the Homeless Coalition of Palm Beach County, and on the host committees for I am Hillel benefiting Hillel of Broward and Palm Beach and the ADL Partners Against Hate Jurisprudence & Community Champion Awards. Lesser is also an ardent supporter of the American Jewish Committee and the Legal Aid Society of Palm Beach County, where he sits on the Board of Directors.
The firm donated funds to buy backpacks and school supplies for Palmetto Elementary School in West Palm Beach, and the firm’s employees volunteered for a day of service stuffing the backpacks with school supplies that were distributed to hundreds of students. This was an initiative of The Education Foundation of Palm Beach County, and the firm is a longtime supporter of this organization.
“Our service to the community is our best investment as it very meaningful and impactful,” Lesser said. “The Firm has a long history of supporting organizations that make a real difference in the communities we serve, and we will continue to do so in the years to come.”
Over the past year, the Firm has supported Young Singers of the Palm Beaches, Leadership Palm Beach County, Economic Council of Palm Beach County, Historical Society of Palm Beach County, Jewish Federation of Palm Beach County, Jewish Federation of South Palm Beach County, The Lord’s Place, American Association of Caregiving Youth, Andrea C. Cameron Foundation, Digital Vibez, Cultural Council for Palm Beach County, United Way of Martin County, Joseph A. Catrambone Scholarship Fund and many, many more.
