Holland & Hart Celebrates its 75th Anniversary with an Afternoon of Service

Holland & Hart celebrated its 75th Anniversary in September through community service events across its offices nationwide, including in Denver, Boulder, and Aspen. The events in Colorado were part of a broader "Afternoon of Service" initiative in which staff are encouraged to take the afternoon to help give back to the local communities in the firm's footprint.

In the firm's headquarters, 110 members of the Denver office took on 13 separate projects in the Swansea neighborhood of North Denver. Community partner Extreme Makeover helped identify homeowners in need of TLC for their homes and yards and supplied the tools and materials. Crews of staff members weeded gardens and lawns; cleared brush, leaves, weeds, and debris from alleys; cleared unwanted stumps and trees from yards; painted garages and houses; built an outside gym area; and built a new fence and a retaining wall.
