Pro Bono from page 9
In 2025, the Professional Pipeline Working Group evaluated $ 61,000 in requests, with $ 58,500 in grants receiving approval. The Foundation and the College budgeted $ 75,000 for Professional Pipeline support in 2025. The Professional Pipeline Grant requests that we funded in 2025 are attached.
Conclusion. This is my fourth and final year having the privilege of serving as the Committee Chair, and I thank you for the opportunity. It has been a pleasure serving with the over 45 members of the Committee, the College and Foundation Boards and leadership, the Professional Pipeline Committee, and Jenny Cudahy and CC Schnapp – all of whom spend significant time in this effort. Special thanks to Jenny Cudahy, for her invaluable administrative support of the Committee, and to our many hard working and dedicated Committee members. Jenny and the Committee members all devote considerable time and effort to the careful review and analysis of the grant requests, as well as the other projects of the Committee. And a special thank you to all of the Fellows who generously donate their money and time to this very worthwhile project. You have all made it possible for many to serve the most vulnerable populations across the country. I urge you to not only continue to donate and make these grants possible, but to also encourage organizations that fit our pro bono and Professional Pipeline guidelines to submit applications for 2026 grants by May 15, 2026.
