Calling Our Nonprofit Community!

The Black Bar Applicant Fund (BBAF) is looking for a temporary fiscal sponsor as we transition toward obtaining our own 501(c)(3) status.

BBAF is dedicated to helping aspiring Black attorneys overcome financial barriers associated with the bar exam. We’re looking for a mission-aligned nonprofit willing to partner with us during this important transition.

If your organization may be interested—or you know a nonprofit that could be a good fit—we’d love to connect!
