Mexican American Bar Foundation

The Mexican American Bar Foundation is a tax-exempt charitable organization that provides financial assistance to law students attending accredited law schools in Los Angeles County and nearby Orange County. Established in 1991, the foundation focuses on supporting students, particularly those from low-income immigrant families, by awarding scholarships based on academic achievement, community service, leadership, and financial need.

Over the years, the foundation has awarded over $4.5 million in scholarships, benefiting 624 law students and providing stipends for graduates preparing for the California Bar Exam. With an emphasis on minimizing overhead, less than 15 percent of its revenue is spent on administrative costs, ensuring that the majority of contributions directly support its mission of enhancing the diversity of the legal profession through education.
