In Jimenez de Arechaga we are mindful of the fact that practicing law is also a privilege that entails the responsibility of putting the skills, knowledge and resources of our professionals to the benefit of the less privileged.

To that effect, in Jimenez de Arechaga we urge our people to help in activities of social interest. In this context we can frame the law firm’s decision to actively participate with Banco Santander in its 2010 ambitious and diversified program of Corporate Social Responsibility.

In this regard, partners, associates and staff are enthusiastically cooperating with projects such as, Banco de la Teleton (non-profit institution supporting disabled children), Fondo de Incentivo Cultural(non-profit organization promoting culture), the Firemen Brigade of Rescuers and Hidroponia(non-profit organization that sponsors the use of the hydroponic method as an alternative feeding system). Furthermore, the firm participates in the authorities of Ronald McDonald House Charities Uruguay, recently established in Uruguay, which is a charitable entity of McDonald's Corporation which provies community services with charitable, educational and scientific purposes.
