Because so many young lawyers have expressed interest in becoming actively involved, the Board of Trustees has implemented a reduced giving program to allow qualified young lawyers to become OBF Fellows.First Year - Lawyers who pledge to become an OBF Fellow on or before January 2, of the year immediately following their admission date may pay $25 per year for two years, then $50 for three years, and then at least $100 per year thereafter until the $1,000 pledge is fulfilled.

Within three years - Lawyers admitted to the Bar three years or less at the time of their $1,000 pledge may contribute $50 for four years and then at least $100 per year thereafter until the $1,000 pledge is fulfilled.
