Secondly we recognize Cohen & Thomas, Attorneys at Law, as our 2015 Champion of Youth award recipients. The Derby law office was founded in 1936 by David B. Cohen, who believed in volunteering his time to give back to his community.
Soon after, James Cohen would carry on his father’s traditions and values. Cohen was President of the Valley Community Foundation, as well as a recipient of the Gold Seal Award from the Greater Valley Chamber of Commerce. He and Dominick Thomas have dedicated their insight, time, and resources to the Club for decades. Thomas has served on our Board for 35 years as well as many other Boards and Commissions throughout our State.
The firm was chosen due to its outstanding commitment to our youth, club, and community.
