For more than 20 years, employees of Riker Danzig have collected toys and other gifts for children to be donated to local charitable organizations during the holiday season, an announcement by the firm said. Hundreds of toys were donated this year to be distributed to Cornerstone Family Programs & Morristown Neighborhood House and the Jersey Battered Women’s Service (JBWS) to help brighten the holidays for those in need.

Bethany A. Abele, a partner at the firm, once again spearheaded Riker Danzig’s toy drive team, the announcement noted, with assistance from director of library and research services Anne Shulman, and associates Kori Pruett and Corey LaBrutto. Abele, Shulman, Pruett and LaBrutto checked their lists twice to make sure that the 43 children from the Neighborhood House classroom adopted by Riker Danzig had a gift from their wish lists. They then donned their Santa hats to sort, wrap and deliver the gifts in time for the holidays.
