About
Us
In
1975, a small group of Los Angeles based African-American
women judges and attorneys met to discuss the marked absence
of an organization which addressed their needs in the
legal field. The dialogue that ensued became the genesis
of Black Women Lawyers Association of Los Angeles, Inc.
("BWL").
BWL
held its first scholarship event in 1975. Since then,
BWL and its foundation, has awarded more than $100,000
in scholarships and grants to second and third year law
students.
In
1992, BWL established the Black Women Lawyers Association
of Los Angeles Foundation ("BWL Foundation")
pursuant to California Nonprofit Public Benefit Corporation
Code, §5310(b). The BWL Foundation sponsors all of
the charitable fundraising efforts of BWL, for which BWL
intends to offer Internal Revenue Code §501(c)(3)
treatment.
