Alabama Law Foundation Grant Cycle Guidance As of February 15, 2025, the Alabama Law Foundation (“ALF”) has new guidance as to the scope of its grants (“Scope”) under Alabama Rule of Professional Conduct 1. 15 (l) and 1. 15(m) (“Rules”).
Please closely review these Rules before drafting any grant requests to ALF. Even if your organization has activities outside the ALF Grants Scope, you may still submit a Grant application, provided that you clearly identify exactly the activities that are squarely within the Scope under the Rules. Your Grant Application will be closely reviewed by ALF as well as the Alabama Supreme Court.
ALF only accepts grant applications from 501(c)(3) charitable organizations under the federal tax code. If you do not hold such a 501(c)(3) status, do not submit an application. ALF does not accept grant applications from individuals.
ALF does not allow “pass through” grants, meaning that we do not accept grants from one organization that is, in turn, meant to be transferred or “passed through” to another organization. This means that we do not allow grants that are intended to be from a “fiscal sponsor” or “fiscal agent” for a third-party organization, even if that other organization is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization.
All grant applications must clearly and plainly fit within the Scope of the Rules. Please note that the Scope that refers to “access to justice” is limited to access to civil justice, not criminal justice, and that access is focused on individual families and individuals at 125% of the federal poverty level. It is essential that your grant application focus specifically on the permissible Scope under the Rules.
Do not simply cut and paste aspects of your organization’s activities that fall outside the permissible Scope under the Rules. Such surplus or overbroad grant application language will not help and will likely hurt your grant application. In 2016 the Alabama Law Foundation received $3.
3 million as part of a nationwide mortgage foreclosure settlement between the Bank of America and the United States Department of Justice. Each year, the foundation awards a portion of these funds to civil legal aid organizations to provide legal services to help Alabama homeowners avoid losing their homes to foreclosure.
