The Stern Family Summer Project, started in 2008, was originally made possible by the generous support of long-time Holland & Hart client and Holland & Hart Foundation donor, the Stern family; and is now supported by current and retired partners of Holland & Hart LLP. This project encourages the daughters, sons, nieces, nephews, and grandchildren of attorneys and staff at Holland & Hart to learn about the value of philanthropy and volunteerism from an early age, and also helps benefit the organizations that are selected by the children who participate.
To participate, a child needs to volunteer or, if too young to volunteer, to visit an organization of that child’s choosing. After volunteering or visiting, the child writes a letter or submits a drawing to the Holland & Hart Foundation telling us about the experience. A donation is then made directly from the Holland & Hart Foundation to the organization in the name of the child.
In 2019, 38 children with connections to the firm’s Boise, Cheyenne, and Denver offices volunteered or visited an organization of their choice, and a significant donation was made to 11 different organizations on behalf of the Stern Family.
