Leaders of Influence: Nonprofit & Philanthropy 2024 – Vito Costanzo

Custom Content by the Los Angeles Business Journal

VITO COSTANZO
Partner
Holland & Knight

Driving a couple of miles from his house in Tarzana recently, a partner at a major law firm came across a group of volunteers picking up trash in the street. Many passersby wouldn’t have given the sight a second thought. Once in a blue moon, somebody might roll down their window to say thank you. But Vito Costanzo, a litigator with Holland & Knight, is different. He parked his car, rolled up his sleeves, grabbed a bag and collected garbage for two hours.

Constanzo’s accomplishments for nonprofits go far beyond random acts of volunteering. As an attorney and volunteer, he has helped win fights in court and in the state legislature that saved untold millions of dollars for nonprofit universities and colleges around California. For 20 years, he also has helped lead a Southern California nonprofit that serves pregnant teenagers and their babies, changing these lives for the better.
