THE GAPABA LAW FOUNDATION

The GAPABA Law Foundation (GLF) was organized in 2005 as the 501(c)(3) non-profit arm of GAPABA, with the mission of providing charitable and educational services for Georgia's Asian Pacific American legal community. GLF has historically awarded over $350,000 in GRANTS to non-profit organizations to support legal internships, programs, and fellowships. Download the GAPABA Law Foundation ByLaws.


In 2022, the Foundation permanently created the GAPABA Trinh Huynh Fellowship with Asian Americans Advancing Justice - Atlanta, endowing a legal fellowship dedicated to impact litigation to benefit the AAPI community. The Foundation also established a Public Interest Scholarship, since renamed after GAPABA Past President Hemanth Digumarthi to provide a source of funding for law students who accept unpaid summer internships with organizations that advance public interest causes, including pro bono legal clinics, non-profit organizations, state and federal agencies, and judicial clerkships.
