Giving to HLS
We Can’t Do This Without You
Gifts made to Harvard Law School from alumni and friends play a critical role in the Law School’s continued excellence, funding financial aid and faculty research, and closing monetary gaps in everything from campus improvements to experiential clinical education and curricular innovation.
Unrestricted gifts and endowment distributions provide 40% of HLS’s operating budget each year.
