Please note the Hennepin County Bar Foundation (HCBF) is undertaking a strategic planning process in order to ensure we can best serve the needs of our community. This means next year’s application and funding priorities may differ from past years. We will keep you informed of any changes and will let you know before the 2014 application period what changes, if any, may affect the HCBF’s grant process and giving. Any changes adopted for 2014 will not affect this year’s (2013) grant process.  


Serving as the charitable arm of the Hennepin County Bar Association, the Hennepin County Bar Foundation was established with the express purpose of providing financial assistance to individuals, organizations, and projects related to the law and the legal system.

The Foundation is a 501(c)(3) charitable corporation that derives virtually all of its funding from direct contributions from individual HCBA lawyers, area law firms, and other organizations in the legal arena.

Contributions to the HCBF provide far-reaching support to a wide range of legal services programs in Hennepin County. 

The HCBF supports programs that:

(1) provide legal services to individuals of limited resources;

(2) educate the public about the legal system; and

(3) contribute to the improvement of the legal system
    and the administration of justice.
