  • “Good design is a useful to society as good money.” said the late Rodney Fitch. Today I am fortunate to be working at Landor & Fitch which still strives to make a positive difference for our clients, our communities, and the world with extraordinary brand transformation by design. Quote by Alasdair Lennox

  • Issued by New York Police & Fire Widows'​ & Children's Benefit Fund

    'Answer the Call' was run entirely by volunteers when we were founded. Now, over 30 years later, our volunteers still play an important role in pursuing our mission, whether it’s helping with a long-term project or assisting at one of our special events. We are always in need of volunteers and welcome any time or talent you may be able to offer.

    In recent years, it’s been an honor to present the Volunteer of the Year Award to one or two volunteers who have dedicated a great deal of their time and talent to further our mission. In one way or another, they have made our organization stronger and we have the utmost respect and appreciation for them.
