Advocacy doesn't have an age limit! \ud83d\udcaf \n\nAs people evolve, they gain insight and experiences from a life fully lived. With this in mind, the Foundation for Senior Living (FSL), a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for senior adults, assembled an inaugural list of outstanding individuals committed to serving the community. \n\nAmong this spotlight of 50, we're pleased to see a handful of Members recognized on their list:\n\n\ud83d\udd35 Jennifer Dangremond - Arizona Housing Coalition (@AZHousingCoalition)\n\ud83d\udd35 Brenda Holt, MAOM, MBA - @AARP Arizona \n\ud83d\udd35 Tom Kelly - retired healthcare executive \n\ud83d\udd35 Sister Adele O'Sullivan - @CircleTheCityAZ \n\ud83d\udd35 Dana Marie Kennedy, MSW - @AARP Arizona \n\nThose and other honorees will be honored at FSL's 50th Anniversary luncheon on Tuesday, October 22, at the Renaissance
Now back, bigger and stronger! \ud83d\udc99 \ud83d\udcaa \n\nIn recent weeks, several of our legal firm Members, which include Lewis Roca (@lewis.roca) and Sherman & Howard (@shermanhowardlaw), have merged with other firms to combine and strengthen the services their respective teams provide to their clients.\n\nMore about these mergers is below:\n\n\ud83d\udc9b When the offices of Lewis Roca and Womble Bond Dickinson (@wbd_us) combine into the latter, the merger expands Womble's presence in our Southwest region and, in turn, brings a desired international presence to Lewis Roca that the firm has desired. The merger creates a \"powerhouse firm\" of more than 1,300 attorneys in the United States and the United Kingdom.\n\n\ud83d\udc99 In late September, Sherman & Howard announced a merger with Taft (@taft_law), a law firm with a non-headquarter operating approach. Over the years, both firms absorbed other law offices to expand their reach into other markets in the Mountain West and Midwest. The mergers of a collective of 17 markets create a presence in 10 states, staffed by more than 1,000 attorneys. In recent years, Taft, a middle market firm, has been recognized with multiple accolades and as the nation's fastest-growing law firm by Am Law 100.\n\nThese mergers will take effect beginning on January 1, 2025.
To Jeff Moloznik, reinvention was taking shape Downtown.\n\nIn 2005, Mike Ebert, Moloznik, and the rest of the RED Development team discovered Downtown Phoenix through First Fridays, whose local community ethos helped sow the seeds for CityScape, Block 23, Fry's Food Store, and an upcoming Community Resource Hub.\n\nTo learn more about these signature projects and the start of an urban renaissance, follow the \ud83d\udd17 in bio! \ud83d\udc46\n\n
