The GT Holly Skolnick Fellowship Foundation concentrates almost all of its funding on supporting public interest legal work, primarily by underwriting legal fellowships and placement/support for lawyers in nonprofit legal practice. Most dollars go to programs that place or support early-career attorneys in public interest roles, indicating a strategic focus on building legal capacity for low-income or underserved communities. Grants are few but large, directed toward organizations that administer fellowships or provide direct public interest legal services.
Highly concentrated giving: very few, large grants with repeat support to one principal intermediary (Equal Justice Works) and occasional direct funding to local legal services groups. Emphasis on programmatic support for lawyer placement rather than broad diversified funding.
