As we mark 45 years since graduating from Queen’s Law, this milestone reunion is both a chance to reconnect and an opportunity to give back to the next generation of students.

Although there are many giving opportunities, we have highlighted three which we think might be of most interest.

1. Law’80 Visiting Lecturer in Business Law

This endowed fund supports high-profile speakers in business and international business law, enriching the student experience and fostering academic excellence. Funds cover expenses, honoraria, and travel associated with hosting these visiting lecturers.

2. Queen’s Faculty of Law Bursary (Student Need)

Financial support can be the deciding factor in whether a student thrives. On average, 30% of Queen's Law students receive limited need-based financial aid, while more than 65% rely on federally funded loans to finance their education. This bursary helps students focus on their studies, not financial stress, making legal education more accessible and inclusive.

3. Experiential Learning Fund (Queen’s Law Clinics)

Queen’s Law Clinics provide hands-on training for more than 200 students each year, supporting over 1,200 client files across five clinics: Queen’s Legal Aid, Business Law, Elder Law, Family Law, and Prison Law. These clinics serve low-income communities while equipping students with essential legal skills.

Every contribution, large or small, honours the legacy of Law’80 and supports the next generation of Queen’s Law students. Bequests and legacy gifts are also a meaningful way to support Queen’s Law for generations to come. To learn more, please contact Zabrina Testa at Queen’s Law.

Thank you for your support!
