On June 19, Gibbons capped off a week-long, firmwide virtual fundraising effort led by the Gibbons Diversity Initiative to benefit the Newark Fresh Air Fund, collecting more than $40,000 in donations from individual employees, the firm announced. The donations helped make up some of the resources the Fresh Air Fund would otherwise have received from the annual “Battle of the Barristers” charity softball tournament, which was canceled this year due to COVID-19, the firm said.
