Subject: Giving Tuesday: Support Students

Dear [Name],

This Giving Tuesday, I’m giving to CUNY Law’s "Every Step of the Way" campaign for student support, and I invite you to join me. The future of social justice depends on giving students the resources they need to succeed—both in the classroom and beyond.

I'm choosing to direct my support to ::Choose from any of the key areas below::

🎓 Scholarships for Access – Help remove financial barriers for deserving students.
💼 Public Interest Internships – Fund unpaid public interest law internships.
🚨 Emergency Grants – Assist students with unexpected financial hardships.
📚 Bar Study Grants – Ensure graduates can focus on passing the bar, not financial stress.
💰 Annual Fund – Support all of the above, wherever it’s needed most.

By giving, we’re helping the next generation of public interest lawyers stay on course, steadying them along their journey towards advocacy.

#EveryStepOfTheWay

Sincerely,




CAMPAIGN THEME AND STORY: "Every Step of the Way"

At CUNY School of Law, we are committed to supporting our students every step of the way on their journey to completing their law degree and becoming advocates for justice. This Giving Tuesday, you can help us make a lasting impact by ensuring our students receive the support they need—whether they're just beginning their studies, gaining invaluable experience, or preparing to launch their legal careers.

You have the opportunity to give to our Annual Fund, which provides broad support to students in a variety of ways, or you can choose to focus your contribution on specific, meaningful milestones in a student’s academic path. 

  • Scholarships for Access and Opportunity Perhaps you want to contribute to our mission of access and equity by providing scholarships to prospective students. Scholarships make it possible for talented, passionate individuals to attend law school without financial barriers. 
  • Support for Public Interest Summer Internships For many of our students, summer internships in public interest law are vital opportunities for hands-on learning and community impact. However, these internships are often unpaid. With your support, you can help ensure that students gain valuable experience while serving those in need. 
  • Emergency Grants for Life’s Unexpected Challenges Sometimes, life’s challenges can disrupt a student’s studies. By contributing to emergency grants, you can help students stay on track and overcome financial hardships that may arise due to unforeseen circumstances. 
  • Bar Study Grants for Future Lawyers Finally, after graduation, CUNY Law students dedicate themselves to full-time study for the bar exam. You can help ease their financial burdens during this critical period by supporting bar study grants, ensuring they can focus on their preparation and success without distractions. 

Whether you choose to support a student at the beginning of their journey or as they near the finish line, your generosity will play a vital role in helping them achieve their dreams and serve the greater good. Every gift along their journey, no matter the size, helps us sustain our commitment to access, opportunity, and justice. 

This Giving Tuesday, please join us in supporting CUNY Law students every step of the way.
