The 1870 Society
Named for the year of the law school’s founding, the 1870 Society honors our most generous donors for their leadership support to Richmond Law. As a Society member, you can serve as an example to others and make a tremendous impact on the lawyers of tomorrow, our students. In fact, support through the 1870 Society accounts for nearly two-thirds of the law school’s annual fund, which enables the school to:
- Guarantee a Summer Public Service Fellowship to every Richmond Law student.
- Empower students to support our community through clinics and pro bono service.
- Enhance Richmond Law’s rigorous curriculum with innovative programming and events for students.
As an 1870 Society member, you lead the way.
