- Lagerlof, LLP I July 2022
Lagerlof Cares, a Pasadena non-profit, was a proud sponsor and participant of the JP Blecksmith Memorial 5K run that was held on Monday, July 4, in San Marino that benefited the JP Blecksmith Leadership Foundation.
The foundation was created in honor of JP Blecksmith, a Marine and San Marino resident, who was killed serving in Iraq in 2004 while leading his fellow marines in Operation Phantom Fury.
This year’s 5K was the foundation’s 18th annual event, and all proceeds from the race will support memorial scholarships. The foundation primarily supports scholarship programs in the local area as well as veterans’ memorials in the San Gabriel Valley. The foundation is led by the bother of JP Blecksmith, Alex Blecksmith. Alex is the foundation’s founder and president.
The 5K was held both in-person
and virtually and was the first time the event was held in-person since the pandemic.
