The Massachusetts Bar Foundation Trustees proudly announce the
award recipients of the 2013 MBF Legal Intern Fellowship Program
(LIFP). This year, the program will provide three exemplary law
students with a stipend of $6,000 each for a full-time, summer
internship at a Massachusetts non-profit organization providing
civil legal services to the poor.
The MBF's Legal Intern Fellowship Program has two concurrent
goals: to give talented students the experience and encouragement
they need to pursue careers in the public interest law sector and
to provide legal aid organizations with much-needed additional
staff capacity for the summer. These awards are supported by
generous contributions to the MBF from lawyers and judges
statewide.
