Campaign for UCLA School of Law

Since its founding in 1949, UCLA School of Law quickly emerged as one of the most important, innovative and inspiring law schools in the nation. The law school is renowned for its extraordinary faculty, collegial culture and pursuit of excellence in all its forms. UCLA School of Law stands at a unique time in its history. Competition - for resources, top students and an illustrious faculty - has never been more intense.

In April 2008, UCLA School of Law publicly launched the $100 million Campaign for UCLA School of Law - the largest fundraising effort in the school's history. The goal is to raise $100 million in private contributions to increase funding for student scholarships and to attract and retain a world-class faculty. In addition, the campaign also seeks funding to expand academic courses and support law school clinics, centers and programs that inform law and public policy.

Philanthropic leadership is absolutely crucial if we are to retain our role in shaping the brightest legal minds of this and coming generations. Now is the time to secure a future of excellence.
