Annual Fund

The Annual Fund is an essential part of the $100 million campaign because it allows Fordham Law to continue providing life-changing opportunities to our remarkably accomplished students. Annual Fund gifts are important because they are unrestricted and designated for current use. They enable increased scholarship offerings, more funding for the school's heavily cited student journals, and additional student fellowships. The more programs, services, and experiences Fordham Law students can take advantage of, the better equipped they are for the future.

The Annual Fund supports:

Fordham Law's student journals are among the most influential in the nation. The Fordham Law Review is the fourth most cited journal of any kind in federal and state courts. Last year, Fordham Law student journals were cited in three different Supreme Court opinions.

Fellowships allow students to work in the public interest while still in law school. Each year, Fordham Law students typically perform more than 100,000 hours of public service in the course of their studies. This year, the American Bar Association awarded our Public Interest Resource Center the Pro Bono Publico Award. Annual Fund support made it possible for our students to perform this remarkable work.

Annual Fund gifts helped make it possible for Fordham Law students to receive more than $2 million in scholarships last year alone.
