At KNR, we’re not just about fighting for our clients in the courtroom — we’re passionate about supporting our communities and making a difference beyond the legal field.
This past weekend, several members of Team KNR hit the pavement for incredible causes close to their hearts, proving once again that advocacy doesn’t stop when the workday ends.
Pre-Litigation Manager Madison P. started the weekend by running in the WQMX 5K, a race dedicated to funding free mammograms for women throughout Northeast Ohio.
Every step helped expand access to early detection and preventive care, which are lifesaving resources for women who might otherwise go without. Madison’s effort reflected KNR’s ongoing commitment to supporting programs that protect and empower local families.
Not stopping there, Madison laced up again for the Future for Wildlife 5K at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo. This race raises awareness and funds for endangered species and global conservation efforts.
By participating, Madison helped highlight the importance of sustainability and education — a reminder that caring for our communities also means caring for the natural world around us.
Paralegal Mackenzie F. joined the first-ever Rock the Boast 5K hosted by L’Arche Cleveland, an organization that champions inclusion and celebrates adults with developmental disabilities.
Mackenzie’s participation wasn’t just about crossing the finish line but about honoring a community built on acceptance, awareness, and love.
Meanwhile, Marketing Coordinator Ciara B. hit her stride at the CAK5K benefiting the MAPS Air Museum in North Canton. This local event supports educational programs and the preservation of Ohio’s rich aviation history. Ciara’s run helped ensure that the stories and achievements of Ohio’s aviators continue to inspire generations to come.
Though each race supported a different cause, every member of Team KNR ran with one shared purpose — to give back to the communities that inspire our work every day. These efforts reflect who we are: a law firm committed to advocacy, compassion, and connection both in and out of court.
