Langrock’s 2020 60-for-60th Monthly Donations Program Supports New Americans in February
Established in 1960, the law firm of Langrock Sperry & Wool, LLP has begun a yearlong celebration of their 60 years of service in Vermont with a series of charitable contributions known as 60-for-60th.
Each month throughout 2020, Langrock will be make “donations of 60” to charitable organizations throughout Chittenden and Addison counties.
In February, Langrock supported the Vermont chapter of the U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants (USCRI Vermont), by donating 60 picture dictionaries to assist English language learners in USCRI Vermont’s community English classes for New Americans.
“These dictionaries are invaluable,” says Langrock staffer Emilie Schweikert, who volunteers as a teacher in those classes. “We cannot thank Langrock enough for this donation in recognition of the positive impact refugees and immigrants have on the Vermont community,” adds Amila Merdzanovic, USCRI Vermont Director.
