Commitment to Our Community

Different lifestyles, beliefs and traditions can enrich the way we work together, address challenges, and interact in our communities and with our clients. We embrace the opportunity to learn and grow from alternative points of view. Our partners and staff are involved in a variety of philanthropic activities with a diverse collection of organizations having causes both large and small. With roots in the Greater Hartford area dating back to 1961, we believe our success must be equally matched by what we return to the community.


Because of our commitment to the Hartford community, the Firm actively sponsors a number of charitable fundraising and volunteering events each year. For instance, W&H’s Community Day is an annual event that the Firm sets aside for all employees to volunteer for local organizations, giving them a chance to make a direct impact on the community in which they work.

In addition to sponsoring and staffing our annual Community Day, the Firm sponsors teams and encourages employees to participate in several local events each year, including the Hartford area’s Susan G. Komen Walk for a Cure, the Travelers Championship, and Hartford’s Dragon Boat Races. These events, and others like them, provide members of our Firm the opportunity to increase their involvement in our community, network with co-workers outside of the office, and participate in fun, meaningful activities that make a real difference.
