Virginia Law Foundation

The Virginia Law Foundation has provided more than $30 million in grants to support projects throughout the Commonwealth that facilitate access to justice, promote the Rule of Law, and provide law-related education in support of these ideals.

Dean David J. Western accepts a grant on behalf of the Appalachian
School of Law from 2025 VLF Board President Stephen E. Noona.

Virginia Law Foundation grants are available to support law-related projects throughout the Commonwealth of Virginia.

Our goal is to be a catalyst for original research, creative thinking, and well-crafted initiatives that provide improved access to justice for the underserved, enhance understanding of the importance of the Rule of Law in society, or support law-related education as an additional way to realize these goals.

Our annual grant application deadline is March 15.
