Empower UC Irvine Law Students and Make a Lasting Impact

UC Irvine Law stands at the forefront of legal education, shaping reflective, practice-ready attorneys equipped to tackle critical challenges in the legal profession. This Giving Day, we invite you to invest in UC Irvine Law students' academic and professional journeys by making a gift to an area of the law school most meaningful to you.

Regardless of size, every contribution has a lasting impact. We sincerely appreciate your generosity and commitment to our students' success.

UC Irvine Law Scholarship Fund: Your gift to scholarships enhances accessibility and affordability for deserving students pursuing exceptional legal education at UC Irvine Law. Your support provides vital resources, allowing students to focus on their academic and professional aspirations with reduced financial stress.

UC Irvine Law Clinics Fund: With ten Core Clinics and additional elective options, UC Irvine Law ensures every student develops practical lawyering skills from hands-on experience. By supporting the Clinics Fund, you help students and faculty bring justice and opportunity to our local, national, and global communities.

Public Interest Law Fund (PILF): Your support of PILF directly enables our students to serve the public interest—a cornerstone of UC Irvine Law—by funding stipends for students who commit their summer to making an impact in their community. These resources allow students to assist non-profit organizations and agencies, addressing real-world issues for actual clients. PILF stipends cover basic living expenses for students working in unpaid positions, supporting organizations that rely on pro bono assistance.

UC Irvine Law Fund: UC Irvine Law continues to set the standard for mission-driven and innovative legal education. Your contribution to the Law Fund fuels groundbreaking faculty research and establishes new pathways to law school for underrepresented communities. By supporting the UC Irvine Law Fund, you support the school's most pressing needs and initiatives.
