(December 20)–Earlier this week, Andrews Kurth Managing Partner Bob Jewell announced that the firm has donated more than $75,000 in cash this holiday season on behalf of the firm’s clients and in recognition of the charities’ ongoing efforts to serve those in need. Food bank contributions were made in the cities in which the firm operates, including its Texas offices in Houston, Dallas and Austin.

The donation was made in addition to the firm’s seventh annual “Open Up Your Heart and Give” campaign, which called upon each of the firm’s offices to sponsor a food drive. Andrews Kurth attorneys and staff collectively donated 6,050 food items, 29,000 meals and another $33,024, in addition to the firm’s financial gift.

“We are pleased to donate to the food banks again this year,” said Jewell. “The food banks serve a vital role in our communities, and I believe that there are few causes that can have such an immediate impact as that of relieving hunger.”

The Houston Food Bank, North Texas Food Bank and Capital Area Food Bank of Texas were the beneficiaries of the firm’s food bank contributions in Texas. The firm also made a monetary donation to No Kid Hungry, a national organization dedicated to ending childhood hunger in America.
