EJF

The Equal Justice Foundation

We are pleased to announce that EJF will host its 26th Annual Auction on Friday, April 1, 2011 at the Melting Point in downtown Athens.

2010's auction was our most successful yet.  Thanks to the generous support of all who attended, we raised a record breaking amount of money which allowed us to fund more students during the 2010 summer than ever before.   Come out and help us build on this success in 2011.

About EJF

The Equal Justice Foundation is a student-run organization devoted to the promotion of public interest law. EJF works to provide stipends for summer law clerks who have chosen to work in unpaid, public interest positions. Public interest law is not a lucrative field, and students who pay the high cost of legal education need financial support. By the students for the students, EJF strives each year to raise more money than the last-- so that more students can use their law degrees for the public good. EJF’s mission is to:

• Raise money for stipends and distribute the funds to public interest law students in a fair manner,
• Provide networking opportunities for students interested in public interest law careers, and
• Promote the viability of public interest law careers at UGA by our fundraising efforts and supporting other public interest organizations at the University of Georgia School of Law.
