Projects we have funded
Since 1992 we have supported legal research and public education on legal issues by providing over $31m in funding for legal research grants and law scholarships. The Law Foundation is now in recess and is no longer accepting new applications. The information on this page and throughout this site is provided for information purposes only.
The links in the upper right hand menu (and further down this page) will provide detail on all projects we have funded. Information on projects funded under our Information Law and Policy Project is available here.
We are still accepting applications for the Cleary Memorial Prize and the Ethel Benjamin Scholarship during recess. Information for applications for these two awards is available on our Apply for Scholarships page.
