Cooper Levenson, Attorneys at Law, awarded three scholarships to college-bound high school students, the firm announced today. Mason Blizzard of Middle Township High School, Brian Garrabrant of Ocean City High School, and Aibhilin Scanlon of Mainland Regional High School each received scholarships from the Cooper Levenson Foundation. The Cooper Levenson team members who served on the scholarship committee chose Blizzard, Garrabrant, and Scanlon as scholarship recipients because of their impressive academic achievements and community service work.
Blizzard plans to study business at the University of Hartford. Garrabrant plans to study political economy with a pre-law track at Georgetown University. Scanlon plans to study environmental science with a pre-law track at Swarthmore College.
Cooper Levenson, an Atlantic City-based law firm, established the fund to benefit college-bound area residents as part of a year-long celebration of the firm’s 50th anniversary in 2007 – and in honor of the practice’s founding partner James L. Cooper, a man who dedicated his life to the law, education, civil rights and community service.
“Our firm has always taken our role as a corporate citizen seriously, and we know that the best way to ensure a strong future for our community and region is to invest in our youth,” said Lloyd D. Levenson, CEO. “In keeping with the example set by our founder Jim Cooper, we help local students – high school seniors who demonstrate civic responsibility and academic achievement – reach their goals for a higher education.”
Cooper Levenson is a full service law firm since 1957, with New Jersey offices in Atlantic City and Cherry Hill. The firm also has offices in Delaware, Florida, New York City, and Las Vegas.
