Legally BLK Fund Inc

The Legally BLK Fund is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting aspiring Black women attorneys and increasing the representation of Black women in law. Roughly only 2% of attorneys in the U.S. are Black women. While this percentage is shockingly low, it is reflective of limited resources and the additional hardships Black women face as they attempt to enter the legal industry.

By providing financial assistance, mentorship, and resources, the Legally BLK Fund seeks to redefine the future of the legal profession by reducing some of the barriers to entry for Black women. Our mission is to provide Black women with the tools, knowledge, and confidence to achieve their legal aspirations. Legally BLK Fund’s vision is that Black women have the opportunity to succeed in the law school application process and beyond. The organization provides annual scholarships to pre-law students and recently launched an in-person institute for young women of color in NYC public schools interested in learning more about the legal profession.
