Jacklyn says that Shay and Ashley were incredibly determined to see her achieve the best possible outcome, and they possessed a remarkable ability to instill courage and inspire hope when she found herself overwhelmed or afraid. The depositions were particularly difficult because they required reliving painful events, but Shay and Ashley were there to comfort her. In Jacklyn’s words, “They gave me the strength to get through it. Furthermore, I don’t believe I could have gone through any of this without them. I’m particularly grateful to Ashley for her incredible compassion. I felt like I was going through this entire process with a sister who was with me every step of the way. Their attitude was always, ‘You can do this.’ I continually felt like I was surrounded by family. They helped me stay focused, and they helped me get my baby what he needed and deserved — there are just not enough good things I can say about that. I will be forever grateful to them. Hare Wynn is a firm you definitely want on your side.”

Helping Students in Need
What makes these numbers so staggering is that apart from the millions of children in poverty whose families struggle to afford school supplies, it’s an uphill battle for most parents in general to pay for these supplies. A study conducted by Junior Achievement USA reveals that 60% of parents say it’s a challenge to afford all their students’ necessary school supplies.
This has been such an issue that even teachers have tried to alleviate some of the burden on the parents. A report by the National Center for Education Statistics highlights how 94% of public school teachers spend their own money on supplies for their students. The school supplies collected by Hare Wynn were given to students across the Birmingham area during an event at New Birth Family Church. We were grateful for the opportunity to help. Hundreds of students received free haircuts and book bags full of school supplies during the event. They also had a chance to enjoy games, face painting, and much more. While New Birth Family Church’s annual back-to- school rally may be over, there are still many ways you can get involved. The Kids in Need Foundation offers a plethora of ways for anyone to donate or volunteer all year round. To find more information, visit their website at KINF.org.
I t’s not just our firm as a whole that is dedicated to our community; every single team member is dedicated to helping. With the increasing prices of school supplies and the upward battle most parents face to get them, we wanted to ensure that the children in our community are equipped to be successful this school year. As the school season begins, more than 15 million kids living in impoverished conditions in the U.S. will arrive on the first day without the supplies they need to be successful. In recent years, studies have shown that the supply list for an elementary student can cost up to $600.
