Miami, FL – As part of the Bilzin Sumberg Cares community involvement initiative, members of the law firm Bilzin Sumberg recently participated in the First Annual Lotus House Spring Community Service Day. Along with 200 other volunteers, Bilzin Sumberg attorneys and staff spent the day repainting 32 apartments at the shelter for homeless women and infants in Overtown, Miami.

Now in its sixth year, Bilzin Sumberg Cares has partnered with organizations including the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation of America, Habitat for Humanity, Special Olympics Miami-Dade County, United Way of Miami-Dade, Voices for Children Foundation and numerous other non-profit organizations.
