Our Pledge to the North Port Community

At Boohoff Law, we believe in the transformative power of community, compassion, and giving back. This time, our team joined forces with West Coast Cycling for a cause close to our hearts – supporting the incredible work of the Joshua House of Tampa Bay. In collaboration, we set out to bring joy and a sense of empowerment to the lives of children and teens who have experienced abuse, neglect, and abandonment.

Cycling for Change

Cycling is more than just a sport; it’s a symbol of freedom, movement, and progress. Boohoff Law and West Coast Cycling recognized the potential for bikes to be more than a mode of transportation – they could be vehicles of change in the lives of those who need it most. Our joint initiative aimed to provide Joshua House with bikes and helmets, offering not just a means of mobility but a tool for empowerment and healing.

Partnering with Joshua House of Tampa Bay

The Joshua House of Tampa Bay stands as a sanctuary for abused, abandoned, and neglected children and teens. With a commitment to promoting healing, growth, and empowerment, Joshua House provides a therapeutic shelter with a family-like environment. Boohoff Law and West Coast Cycling were honored to contribute to this mission by donating bikes and helmets, allowing the children to experience the simple joys of childhood while fostering a sense of independence and self-confidence.

Pedals of Empowerment

A bike is more than a machine; it’s a symbol of freedom, exploration, and independence. For the children of Joshua House, these bikes represent a chance to break free from the chains of their past and embrace a future filled with possibilities. It’s about more than just physical activity – it’s about giving these young souls the tools they need to navigate life’s journey with resilience and determination.

The Heart of Community Involvement

Boohoff Law and West Coast Cycling are not just businesses; we are integral parts of the communities we serve. Our collaboration with Joshua House is a testament to our commitment to making a positive impact beyond legal services. By engaging with organizations like Joshua House, we aim to be catalysts for positive change, contributing to the well-being of the most vulnerable members of our community – its children.

How You Can Support

Join us in supporting Joshua House of Tampa Bay. Whether through donations, volunteering, or spreading the word about their mission, every effort counts. Together, we can create a ripple effect of change, ensuring that no child is left without the care, support, and opportunities they deserve.

Boohoff Law recently supported the Kiwanis Pet Expo in North Port, FL on April 29th, and it was an absolute blast! Our team had a great time networking with our community and taking photos with all of the adorable pets in attendance. The event was a huge success, with many pet owners and animal lovers coming out to enjoy the festivities. From dogs and cats to birds and reptiles, there were all kinds of furry and feathered friends to meet and greet. Boohoff Law was proud to be a part of such a wonderful event, supporting the well-being of animals in the community.

Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) is the nation’s largest nonprofit working to end drunk driving, help fight drugged driving, and support the victims of this negligent behavior. Every year, their signature fundraising event, Walk Like MADD, raises awareness and funds to help support their mission. By raising awareness about the horrific effects of these crimes, together we can help make our communities safer.

Our firm is a proud supporter of MADD. On March 31st, 2023 the Boohoff Law team attended Walk Like MADD on the beautiful grounds of the University of South Florida in Tampa. During the event, our firm set up a booth and had a team of walkers to help raise awareness. This was an incredible opportunity to pay tribute to the victims and their families affected by drunk and drugged driving with our Tampa community.

What better way to celebrate love than to share it with your local community? To celebrate Valentine’s Day this year, our team decorated, packed, and delivered handmade Valentines to the volunteers and families at the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Tampa Bay. Ronald McDonald House Charities is a staple in our community. They provide a home-away-from-home for families of seriously ill or injured children. Located just steps away from the Tampa General Hospital Pediatrics Unit, the Ronald McDonald House provides accommodations, meals, and support for families during one of the most difficult times of their lives.

On August 4th, 2022, the Boohoff Law team attended the Annual Back to School Teacher Appreciation Luncheon at Bloomingdale Highschool hosted by Valrico FishHawk Chamber of Commerce. During the event, the firm partnered with local businesses to provide classroom supplies to teachers for the upcoming school year. While enjoying a celebratory lunch, teachers got the chance to hear Wes Lyons, motivational speaker, and former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver, discuss his new book, The Pursuit with Patience. It was an incredible opportunity for the team to spend time with and show appreciation for many impactful educators in the community.

During the investigation of the death of Gabby Petito, Boohoff Law offered a $20,000 reward to any individual who could provide information leading to the location of Brian Laundrie. After Laundrie’s body was discovered by North Port Police Department, the firm pledged to donate the money to North Port Police Officer’s Association.

Boohoff Law is honored to partner with a nonprofit organization whose members have gone above and beyond to improve the lives of local law enforcement and the community.

Sponsored North Port High School Alternative Graduation – 7/16/2020

On July 16, 2020, Boohoff Law sponsored an “alternative graduation” for North Port High School giving the seniors a much deserved time to shine. Covid-19 was going to prevent the class of 2020 from walking across the stage until members of the community stepped up to ensure an outdoor graduation could be held while maintaining CDC guidelines. The day was a major success and Boohoff Law was honored to be a part of the historic moment for the North Port community. North Port High School was kind enough to present a Certificate of Appreciation to the firm for making the event happen.
