Bisnar | Chase Teams Up with SOS to Adopt Two Families for Christmas

As it has for many years, the Bisnar | Chase Personal Injury Law Firm (www.BestAttorney.com) will adopt two needy families for Christmas through the Share Our Selves (SOS) annual Adopt A Family program.

Newport Beach, CA (PRWEB) November 19, 2009 -- As it has for many years, the Bisnar | Chase Personal Injury Law Firm (www.BestAttorney.com) will adopt two needy families for Christmas through the Share Our Selves (SOS) annual Adopt A Family program.

Employees of the Newport Beach-based law firm will donate gifts, gift certificates and food to brighten the holidays of families in need. "Every year, we adopt two families who would not have a happy Christmas if it weren’t for the generous people who choose to participate in this wonderful program," said Bisnar | Chase founder, John Bisnar. "This year, we'll be adopting two, four-person families -- mother, father and two children - -for the holidays."

Shoes, Clothes, Toys, and a Turkey Dinner

Donated items typically include shoes, clothes, toys, and food to make sure each family has a Christmas they can enjoy and remember. "We make sure the family has a great holiday, complete with presents for all and a delicious turkey dinner," noted Danielle Olson, Bisnar | Chase Executive Assistant and Adopt A Family project coordinator. "We provide these families with gifts, gift certificates and toys. We also remain anonymous and package the children's toys on behalf of their parents."

Over 750 SOS Volunteers in Orange County

Share Our Selves selected the local Orange County families for Bisnar | Chase based on need. In some cases, the law firm has helped much larger families. SOS is comprised of over 750 volunteers in Orange County who provide free assistance to those in need of basic living essentials. These include social and medical services, as well as dental services throughout the year. The annual holiday Adopt A Family tradition is designed to brighten the Christmas of these needy families.
