The Kane County Bar Foundation will award at least two $1,500 scholarships a year to deserving Kane County resident law students.

Scholarships are awarded to deserving law students including those whose permanent address, or the permanent address of at least one of their parent/guardians is in Kane County. Although the foundation may take into consideration whether the applying individual intends to practice law in the 16th Judicial Circuit, this is not a requirement for eligibility.

Scholarship monies awarded through the foundation will be deposited directly into the applicant’s law school financial account. Those awarded scholarships will be honored at the Kane County Bar Association Annual Dinner in June, including complimentary attendance for the recipient and a guest.

Application deadline is April 28, 2017. Applications are available on the KCBA website at: https://www.kanecountybar.org/scholarship-information

The Kane County Bar Foundation is a 501 (C) (3) Charitable Organization. For more information, please contact Jan Wade, Executive Director, at (630) 762-1915 or director@kanecountybar.org.
