2019 BPILP Auction

BPILP provides competitive fellowships to law students who spend their summers working in the public interest sector. The public interest and not-for profit agencies where our fellows work are often understaffed and need additional assistance, but are unable to pay students. BPILP fellowships "bridge the gap" and allow students to work in the public interest and be paid to do so.

The Buffalo Public Interest Law Program (BPILP) raises money to support students who work in the public interest each summer during law school. BPILP was founded in 1979, with the goal of its founding members to encourage law students to use their talents to bring equal access to those in need of legal help. Since 1993, this goal has been accomplished through providing competitive fellowships to law students who spend their summers working in the public interest.
