Jones Foster celebrated Florida’s inaugural Veterans Appreciation Month by honoring Lake Worth-based nonprofit Paws 4 Liberty. The national month of recognition celebrating the achievements and sacrifices of veterans was signed into Florida law this year by Gov. Ron DeSantis. Jones Foster made a monetary donation through the firm’s community involvement program, Jones Foster Impact.

Paws 4 Liberty is dedicated to helping local veterans in Palm Beach County and the surrounding areas who suffer from issues with physical and/or psychological trauma “regain their independence and confidence through the assistance of trained service dogs who improve the quality of life.”
