Trantolo & Trantolo has proudly supported the communities we serve for over 85 years. Our firm was founded to protect those unable to protect themselves, inside and outside the courtroom. We are deeply involved with local safety initiatives and organize large fundraising events to help those in need.
Our Charity Concert Series supports the Boys & Girls Club of Hartford, an organization that provides after-school programs for young people, enabling them to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens. In addition to this wonderful summer event, we have launched a variety of community outreach programs and support many local organizations that make a meaningful difference in the lives of others. We’ll continue our strong commitment to service in the years to come!

Trantolo & Trantolo’s hugely successful Heads Up For Safety program is a coalition of public and private community stakeholders who support bicycle helmet safety and education for local youth. Attorney Vincent Trantolo began this program over 20 years ago in Hartford with the late Mayor Michael Peters. On Friday, September 14th, Attorney Keith Trantolo and our Chief Operating Officer, Scott Trantolo, brought it back to our capital city, where Mayor Luke Bronin welcomed us!
First launched in Bridgeport this summer, the goal of Heads Up For Safety is to reduce the number of bicycle-related injuries that lead to emergency room visits among our youth. According to Safe Kids Connecticut, wearing a bicycle helmet can reduce the risk of brain injury by 88 percent but unfortunately, only 45 percent of children 14 and under wear one.
On September 14th, Mayor Luke Bronin helped us inaugurate Heads Up For Safety in Hartford, where our law firm first opened its doors 85 years ago. During Friday’s event at the Hartford Boys and Girls Club, we gave away 125 Heads Up For Safety helmets and 34 new bicycles, built and generously donated by employees of Aetna and St. Francis HealthCare Partners. We also held a Tricycle Race, which Attorney Keith Trantolo won!
Our father always taught us it’s important to give back to the community that supports us. – Trial Atty. Keith Trantolo
Through our partnership with the Hartford Police Department, we hope to fit 1,000 free bicycle helmets to current safety standards. Kids seen riding without a helmet will receive a “ticket” that’s redeemable for a free bicycle helmet with the Heads Up For Safety decal. We’ll also reward kids who wear head protection with Hartford Yard Goats baseball and Hartford Wolf Pack hockey games!
We were looking for an opportunity to get involved with the community we’re in. We’re excited to be in the city where our headquarters are based. – COO Scott Trantolo

The Beach Boys!
For over 85 years, Trantolo & Trantolo has built strong ties in the communities we serve. Our law firm is passionate about helping others, inside and outside the courtroom. Every year, we organize and sponsor local events to support worthy causes.
This year, Trantolo & Trantolo is proud to present our first Summer Concert Series. On August 17th, we are excited to announce The Beach Boys at the Simsbury Meadows Performing Arts Center!
Good Vibrations, Great Cause
For the first time in years, The Beach Boys return to Connecticut for a charity concert. The concert will benefit the Boys & Girls Club of Hartford. Proceeds from this event will help raise funds to build the new Southend Club, which will serve over 1,500 children in the city’s southeast corridor.
“Helping to build the new South End Club for the Boys & Girls Club is a homecoming for me as I grew up in Hartford’s South End,” said Vincent Trantolo.
The Rock n’ Roll Hall of Famers will be performing live at a quaint outdoor venue, followed by one of the year’s biggest firework shows. Bring the whole family to enjoy the nostalgic sounds of the 1960s and great food from gourmet food trucks, all to support the Boys & Girls Club of Hartford.
The Beach Boys concert is part of a multi-year commitment of charity concerts by Trantolo & Trantolo to bring world-class performers to the Simsbury Meadows Performing Arts Center on behalf of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Hartford. This is truly the ‘last blast of summer’ complete with one of the season’s larger firework shows. – Scott Trantolo, Chief Operating Officer
Charity Concert Series Continues to Make a Difference
On Sunday, July 31st, Trantolo & Trantolo proudly presented our Life on 2 Wheels Benefit Ride & Concert, featuring Southern Rock legends Molly Hatchet, with local favorites Shovelhead and Cold Train.
The Molly Hatchet concert is part of a multi-year commitment of charity concerts by Trantolo & Trantolo to bring world-class performers to the region on behalf of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Hartford – Scott Trantolo, Chief Operating Officer.
Charity Motorcycle Ride & Concert
A police-escorted motorcycle ride from Old School Harley-Davidson arrived in East Granby, CT to join the other concertgoers at Mark’s Classic Cruise Field. Attendees enjoyed a diverse lineup of family-friendly food trucks, participated in fun raffles and enjoyed the beautiful summer weather as the opening acts took the stage.
Shovelhead and Cold Train put on rocking performances to get the crowd even more fired up for one of the hardest hitting Southern rock bands of their time, Molly Hatchet.
Supporting the Boys & Girls Clubs of Hartford
“The Life on Two Wheels Benefit Ride & Concert is one of our largest annual fundraisers, so we appreciate both the financial support and event organization from Trantolo & Trantolo,” said Sam Gray, President & CEO, Boys & Girls Clubs of Hartford.
Since its inception three years ago, the Trantolo & Trantolo Charity Concert Series has raised $325,000 for the Boys and Girls Clubs of Hartford. Founded in 1860, the original and oldest Boys & Girls Club in the nation has provided a positive, safe and nurturing environment for kids. We’re proud to support their mission to build the values, character and skills young people need to succeed as productive, responsible citizens in the 21st century.
A special thanks to our sponsors, vendors, event staff and attendees for helping us make a difference in the community. See you next year!
