Fellowship Award Amount
The amount of each KHLF Summer Fellowship award will be determined based on that year's fundraising success and the number of eligible member applications. The amount raised will be divided equally among each eligible member who applies. KHLF grant recipients must disclose to KHLF the sources and amounts of all other summer funding. This includes an amount received in any form from their organization, including but not limited to, stipends, transportation, and other expenses. This also includes any outside funding, including but not limited to grants and scholarships. Grant recipients may not receive more than $10,000 of total funding from all sources for the summer (including the KHLF summer grant). Any amount above this cap must be refunded to KHLF accordingly. KHLF may also fund part‐time public interest legal work on a pro‐rated basis.
