Corboy & Demetrio participated in the Midwest Shelter for Homeless Veterans’ Secret Snowflake holiday giving program this holiday season. Employees “adopted” three U.S. Veterans and their families who are currently clients of MSHV, purchasing them gifts from their wish lists. Corboy & Demetrio Managing Partner Kenneth T. Lumb, himself a U.S. Veteran, passed out presents and presented a donation to MSHV on behalf of the firm. Helping veterans is something the law firm takes pride in as Corboy & Demetrio Co-founder Thomas Demetrio is also a U.S. Veteran. The shelter, based in Wheaton, has served a total of 600 homeless veterans since its inception and provides services for veterans living in seven northern Illinois counties. There are currently 1400 homeless veterans in Illinois alone, and the shelter’s mission is to end veteran homelessness altogether. Its motto is “Leave No Veteran Behind.
