Community outreach
We at Tuesley Hall Konopa believe it is our professional and civic responsibility to give our time and resources back to the people and surrounding communities that support us. We do this in many ways, including serving on the boards of many non-profit organizations. Below are just a few of the ways the attorneys and legal staff at Tuesley Hall Konopa support our community.
Tuesley Hall Konopa wins award in small law firm division for its participation in the Indiana Attorney General's March Against Hunger.
Once again, Tuesley Hall Konopa steps up in the fight against hunger. Attorney General, Greg Zoeller, has joined forces with the Indiana State Bar Association and Feeding Indiana’s Hungry (FIsH) for the third annual March Against Hunger food drive. March Against Hunger is a friendly competition between law firms to raise the most donations – either of non perishable foods or direct monetary contribution for Indiana’s 11 regional food banks. Tuesley Hall Konopa raised $1,331 in cash donations, and collected 29 pounds of food. Dave Melander, Resource Development Manager for the Food Bank of Northern Indiana thanked the firm and Attorney General, Greg Zoeller for helping provide over 9,300 additional meals to people in need at this time of year.
