We have 6 more days to go! We are so excited for the progress we have made so far, and more importantly to execute the next steps in our study. Your donations will help us work with the students in our focus groups to identify solutions to closing gaps in disparities. These solutions, made possible by your generosity, will ensure that women of color have thriving law practices. With 6 days left, please continue sharing our social media posts and reaching out to your contacts who would be interested in advancing this mission. Your donations will leave a lasting impact, and for that, we thank you.

We have raised 18% of our goal for this campaign. With 17 days left, we need your support in spreading the word about our mission and reaching our goal.
Remember: all donations, whether $5 or $1,000, will help us to advance equality within the legal profession, starting at law school. Thank you to those who have donated so far. We are excited to take the next steps in our study on How Career Opportunities for Women of Color are Shaped in Law School, which will involve conducting qualitative data through student focus groups and administrator interviews, and then working with schools to implement solutions. Be a part of those solutions by donating today.
Still unsure about why you should you give? Here is one reason why Janice Block Chaddock decided to donate:
If you're keeping up with our Hornraiser, we are so grateful that you care about this step to propel equality for women of color within the legal field. It is our first week in and we are excited to announce that we have raised already 6% of our fundraising goal!
Why this is important: Women of color students in law school report a sense of isolation, exclusion from the best study groups, a lack of role models, disparate treatment by professors, and heightened objectification and sexual harassment at networking events. Our research will make a profound impact to change this experience, and by donating, you, too, are advancing this goal.
We have 24 days left to go. Please continue to spread the word about this fundraiser and its mission.
