Closing 2023 with Gratitude

December 30, 2023

As 2023 closes we want to thank you for supporting Indigenous law students attending University of Arizona Law.

Thank you for supporting the next generation of Indigenous law students with your support of the Huerta Scholarship.

As we enter the 2024 recruitment season, your support of the Huerta Scholarship and our students is vital. By providing our students financial support, you let them know there is a community here to support them.

Thus far we have raised $37,404, all of which goes directly to supporting Indigenous law students as they start their legal education at University of Arizona Law. 

Wishing you and your family all the best in 2024.
