Fellows of the South Dakota Bar Foundation
Many South Dakota lawyers have risen to the challenge of making the SD Bar Foundation a favorite charity. Such generosity deserves public acknowledgement. Therefore, the Bar Foundation Board of Directors has created a “Fellows” program to not only make such acknowledgement, but also provide an opportunity for more of our members to participate and determine their personal level of professional philanthropy. Participation can be on an annual basis or by pledge with payments over a period of time. All contributions made to the Fellows program will be deposited in the Foundation’s endowment account managed by the SD Community Foundation - famous for low management fees and excellent investment returns. Donations to the endowment are tax deductible and a perpetual gift to our profession and the non-profit organizations the Foundation supports.
