No-Shave November
November 2024
Each November, attorneys and staff members from Rodnunsky & Associates participate in a "No-Shave November" event to raise money for a local charity.
Monies raised this year went to Camp Agape, helping support children who have both or one of their parents incarcerated, to build positive, long lasting relationships, experience spiritual, social, and relational growth, as well as prepare them for a restorative relationship with their parents when those parents are released from jail or prison. There are over 292,000 children in California whose parents are incarcerated. Statistics show that the children of incarcerated parents are five times more likely to end up in jail than their peers.
Thank you everyone for supporting the Beardies of 2024 and Camp Agape.
Your donations will make a difference in so many ways.
