Your Gift Makes an Impact: Support UCI Law Students!

UCI Law is a leader in legal education, training reflective, practice-ready lawyers to take on pressing challenges at the highest level of the legal profession. This Giving Day, we invite you to make a gift to UCI Law in support of our students’ academic and professional endeavors. We encourage all supporters of UCI Law to give to an area most meaningful to them.

Every gift, regardless of amount, makes a difference. Thank you for your generosity and support of our students.

UCI School of Law Scholarships Fund: By making a gift to the School of Law Scholarships Fund, you are providing greater access and affordability to every deserving student seeking an outstanding legal education at UCI Law. Your gift will provide critical resources that enable students to achieve their academic and professional goals with less concern for the financial burdens they may face.

UCI Law Clinics Fund: With eleven Core Clinics and even more elective offerings, UCI Law ensures every student will develop practical lawyering skills around an area of law or a community need that is meaningful. Supporting the Clinics Fund means helping to bring justice and opportunity to our local, national, and global communities.

Public Interest Law Fund (PILF): UCI Law’s Public Interest Law Fund (PILF) seeks to enable all interested UCI Law students to serve the public interest – a core mission of UCI School of Law – by providing work stipends and networking opportunities so that students can work at non-profit organizations and agencies, helping real clients with real problems. Because public-interest organizations rely on volunteer attorneys to provide pro bono assistance, the PILF stipends allow UCI Law students to cover basic living costs while they are working without pay.

UCI Law Fund: UCI Law will continue to lead by example, demonstrating what is possible when legal education is mission-driven and innovative. Your gift to the Law Fund will support groundbreaking faculty research and establish new educational pathways to law school for underrepresented communities. When you contribute to the UCI Law Fund, you support the school’s most pressing needs and innovative projects.
