FAMILIES

From paralegals to partners, we all get involved in helping families with the day-to-day challenges many often face.

    • Safe Shores Back-to-School – every summer we provide backpacks and school supplies to children impacted by violence in DC.
    • Martha’s Table sandwich making – we have made and donated thousands of sandwiches to those who face food uncertainty in the DC area.
    • Safe Shores Holiday Drive – each year we give holiday gifts to children who are affected by abuse and violence.
    • Miriam’s Kitchen blanket making – we created no-sew blankets that were distributed to those experiencing homelessness and as a welcome home gift for those that were newly housed.

SPECIAL PROJECTS

Gilbert looks for opportunities to help in less traditional ways.  In recent years, our attorneys and staff have embarked on a range of valuable projects, including:

    • Working with the non-profit Rebuilding Together DC • Alexandria, we helped a family in our neighborhood with a range of home repair and improvement projects. 
    • In the wake of a 2022 tornado, Gilbert attorneys travelled to Mayfield, Kentucky to help residents rebuild a heavily damaged local park and restore their community.
    • Partnering with the non-profit Jordan Thomas Foundation to help provide children with limb loss and limb differences with prostheses they need to live active lives.
