Thanks to the vision and generosity of alumni, law firms, and other supporters, La Raza Law Students Association is realizing its dream of creating a sustainable fellowship to support Latina/o students interested in public interest law. This year La Raza Law Students Association is pleased to announce that it will be awarding two fellowships: the Cruz Reynoso Social Justice Fellowship and the Cruz Reynoso Judicial Externship Fellowship. Our organization will continue to support Latina/o students interested in public interest law as well as financially support a Latina/o student pursuing an unpaid judicial externship. By adding a judicial externship fellowship, we hope to increase the number of Latina/os in the judiciary.

With your help, our fundraising efforts have been successful. Our first year, we raised over $40,000. Since then, we have raised over $30,000 each year. In 2006 we endowed the Cruz Reynoso Social Justice Fellowship. Our current goal is to raise enough funds to endow the Cruz Reynoso Judicial Externship Fellowship.

Last year the Honorable Cruz Reynoso presented Angela Hollowell-Fuentes the CRSJF award. The fellowship enabled her to spend the summer working at the Immigrant Legal Resource Center in San Francisco where she worked on immigration and asylum law. Ms. Hollowell-Fuentes is currently the co-chair for 2007 Cruz Reynoso Fellowship Dinner.
