Hastings and Hastings Offers Generous Donation to Special Olympics Arizona

Hastings and Hastings, Arizona's discount accident lawyers, pledges a donation once again to The Special Olympics



    PHOENIX, AZ, August 11, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Special Olympics is a global charity. It supports nearly 16,000 athletes with intellectually disabilities residing in the Phoenix metropolitan area, and serves as support for the 180,000 intellectually challenged individuals in the state of Arizona.

The Special Olympics had its genesis in 1962 when a team of philanthropists and entrepreneurs decided to start a day camp for individuals plagued with mental disabilities. Over the years, the day camp progressed into one of the largest charitable organizations in the world supporting nearly 4.4 million athletes with disabilities worldwide. The charity has permeated a myriad of countries including China, Russia, America, Norway, Germany, Brazil, and Argentina. Following are some of the sports that take place in The Special Olympics: skiing, track and field, archery, horse racing, basketball, tennis, and bowling just to name a few. Indeed, the charity raises millions of spirits and dollars every year.

Hastings and Hastings philanthropy extends to their clients as well. Clients visiting Hastings and Hastings valley locations over the past seven years have saved over $11,000,000 dollars. What's more, their staff can only be described as an all-star list of attorneys. One of their young associates matriculated from Columbia, they employ several cum laude graduates from ASU and U of A, and one of their young attorneys served a federal clerkship at the Arizona Supreme Court level.

Indeed, the ties between The Special Olympics and Hastings and Hastings are here to stay... It's good to know that there are lawyers out there who want to make a difference.

"We are a major sponsor of the Special Olympics because we believe in the cause. Everyone can learn a thing or two from the athletes and we derive great joy from knowing we made a difference," said David Hastings, Attorney at Hastings and Hastings.
