| Endowment Funds and other restricted gifts enable alumni to make a significant donation to the Law School for a specific purpose. For example gifts to the School's Loan Forgiveness Fund enable alumni working in the public interest to receive grants to help lower their student loans. The William Randolph Hearst Endowment allows students in need to receive small grants to pay for books, transportation and child care expenses on an emergency basis. The Summer Public Interest Fellowship Program pays a stipend to students who take summer positions in public interest organizations. Targeted gifts to the Law Library, Law School Clinics, Institutes, and other special fund raising programs or events provide the opportunity to be generous to the Law School in an area in which the donor might have a special connection or affinity.
A gift of an Endowed Scholarship or Award is an excellent way to honor a friend or family member or to put your own name on a gift that will help to support the legal education of a promising student. Some examples of such awards are the Sidney R. and Walter Siben Fellowship,
and the Fannie and Samuel Glickstein Fellowship.
If you are interested in creating an endowment or scholarship please call the Development Office at (631) 761-7061.
