The Shayna Bennett Scholarship for Advocacy and Service

Thank you for your interest in making a gift to the Shayna Bennett Scholarship for Advocacy and Service!

     The loss of Shayna Bennett has touched each of us deeply, and we are moved by the outpouring of love and remembrance that has come from students, faculty, staff, and friends across our community. In that spirit, and with the loving guidance of her family, we are honored to share a tribute initiative designed to ensure that Shayna's memory endures for years to come.
     We are working to establish a scholarship in Shayna's name for incoming law students who share her passion for public service and her unwavering dedication to advocating for children. Shayna aspired to use her law degree to give every child a voice and to leave no child unseen or unheard. She possessed a rare and beautiful clarity of purpose, and we hope that her name will serve as a source of inspiration for future students who feel called to that same meaningful work.
     The Shayna Bennett Scholarship for Advocacy and Service will support incoming law students who share Shayna’s dedication to public service and who demonstrate both financial need and a commitment to making a difference through the law. Depending upon the total amount raised to support Shayna's scholarship, the fund may be endowed to provide long-term support to students.
