  ABOUT US
     
  The Frederick B. Abramson Memorial Foundation ("The Abramson Foundation"), a not-for-profit charitable corporation, was established in 1991 as a continuing tribute to the memory of Fred Abramson, a distinguished member of the Washington legal community. Fred Abramson was a President of the District of Columbia Bar, Bar Counsel to the Board on Professional Responsibility of the District of Columbia Court of Appeals and, perhaps most important, mentor and role model to scores of individuals.

OUR MISSION

The Abramson Foundation provides financial support to enable DC public school graduates to attend four-year colleges and provides mentors to foster their success. The Abramson Foundation also provides fellowships to public interest attorneys working with DCÕs most vulnerable residents.

The primary purpose of the Frederick B. Abramson Memorial Foundation is to honor and further Fred Abramson's beliefs in:
  • the importance of community service and mentoring, especially for minorities and women;
  • the ongoing value of educational attainment; and
  • legal representation for disadvantaged individuals and the public interest.
