Foundation Announces New Grant Program for Law Students
The Foundation is pleased to announce the creation of the Armonica Law Student Grant Program in honor of late Foundation Board member Armonica Gilford. The grant is available to 3rd year students attending the three Oregon law schools who can demonstrate a commitment to the Foundation’s goals through their personal, volunteer, or educational experience. Ethnic minorities and women are especially encouraged to apply. Annually, one recipient is selected from each of the Oregon law schools to receive a text book grant in the amount of $500. In addition to the monetary grant, each recipient is matched with an ethnic minority female judge or attorney, who serves as the student’s mentor for the year.
For 2007-2008, applicants must complete the on-line application form by 5:00 pm on Friday, September 7, 2007.
