Rancho Mirage, CA – July 28, 2025 – As the increasing costs of consumer goods continue to impact family budgets, Walter Clark Legal Group is helping relieve the pressure for some families by giving $64,500 worth of new backpacks filled with school supplies to elementary students at 5 school districts in the Southern California communities it serves. The elementary school students selected to receive new backpacks and school supplies will get them at the start of the academic year. This donation is part of the personal injury law firm’s annual efforts to provide students with essential resources and equitable access to education.
“We are delighted that our donations have increased from $11,700 two years ago to $64,500 this year,” said Walter Clark, CEO & President of Walter Clark Legal Group. “It’s always touching and inspirational to see the faces of the students when they select their backpacks.”
