Brach Eichler Holds 13th Annual Toy Drive
For the 13th consecutive year, employees at Brach Eichler in Roseland continued a firm holiday tradition by donating toys and cash to purchase gifts for the benefit of children at Eva's Village and the Jersey Battered Women's Shelter (JBWS). Located in Paterson, Eva's Village is a faith-based, nondenominational, antipoverty nonprofit organization dedicated to helping people in need. The JBWS, located in Morris County, is a full-service domestic abuse prevention agency that provides counseling, safe housing, transitional living, and legal assistance, among other services. Both organizations have set up a “holiday boutique/shopping event” with the donations, where parents can pick out gifts for their children to open so they can enjoy a special holiday.

The drive provides holiday gifts to children from disadvantaged households in the greater Union County area. Lindabury's Women's Business Initiative (WBI) program organized the firm's partnership, and family law attorney Nicole Kobis served as the drive's coordinator. Lindabury attorneys and staff collected more than 150 toys to be distributed to 40 children ranging in age from 6 months to 4 years. In addition to gifts, Lindabury also made a monetary donation to the United Way. “I am so grateful for the overwhelming support from the Lindabury family, who is always happy to lend a hand to those in need. What a great way to begin the holiday season,” Kobis said.
