Statewide Hunger-Relief Effort Comes to Northern Kentucky

Crestview Hills, KY. (March 22, 2017) – DBL Law is pleased to announce that it will be participating in the inaugural Kentucky Legal Food Frenzy from March 27 to April 7, 2017. The Food Frenzy is a statewide fund drive competition among Kentucky law firms, law schools and legal organizations to support the members of the Kentucky Association of Food Banks. The campaign is sponsored by the office of Attorney General Andy Beshear, the office of Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes and the Kentucky Bar Association Young Lawyers Division.

Over 700,000 Kentuckians, including more than 200,000 children, struggle with hunger. Yet only one in 13 school-aged children who receive free and reduced-priced lunch during the school year have access to such meals during the summer months. The Legal Food Frenzy is timed to provide a much-needed supply of resources to Kentucky’s food bank network to meet increased demand during the summer months when schools are closed.

Rebecca Schafer, chair of Kentucky Bar Association Young Lawyers Division, said the goals of the campaign are to raise 600,000 pounds of food or $150,000 from March 27 to April 7, 2017.

Jim Dressman III, Managing Partner at DBL Law, commented, “DBL law is excited to announce their part in the Kentucky Legal Food Frenzy, to benefit the Kentucky Association of Food Banks, along with the Northern Kentucky community.  Our attorneys serve with the motivation and passion to constantly improve the ways we can better serve our community and are thrilled to support this initiative.”

The DBL will be collecting both food and fund donations.  Every $1 donated through the completion will return $13 or more in food to the community.

Kentucky law firms, law schools and legal organizations are encouraged to sign-up online.
