December, 19 2009 – Midwest Litigation Services helps childern and families this holiday season

On Saturday, December 19th, Midwest Litigation Services joined with the Bar Association of Metropolitan St. Louis, the St. Louis Rams’ organization and several other sponsors at the Edward Jones Dome for the Motion for Kids holiday party (previously known as Project Angel Tree). This event was created to offer children who have been affected by the legal system an opportunity to play games, meet Rams football players and cheerleaders, visit with Santa, and receive gifts.

MLS staff, court reporters, videographers, and their families sponsored over 65 children through gift-giving. We also organized the Santa’s station which offers the kids a chance to send a letter to Santa, get their picture taken with Santa, visit with several “characters” including Mickey Mouse, Scooby-Doo, Frosty, the Grinch, and Shrek among others. It never fails that the volunteers go home with as big a smile, if not bigger, than the kids!
