Niskayuna, NY (PRWEB) October 2, 2009 -- Personal Injury law firm, Martin, Harding & Mazzotti Managing Partner, Paul B. Harding raised more than $33,000 for the 2009 Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Man of the Year challenge.

"I am very pleased and thankful for all of the donations we were able to secure for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society this year," said Harding. "Everyone is a winner in this friendly competition. I hope next year's candidates raise an even greater amount of money to help those suffering from these terrible diseases."
