About SamVidhi’s and Fundraiser COVID-19 and Mentorship Programme
India is currently in the midst of the devastating second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. With an aim to contribute towards the fight against COVID-19 and to aid relief efforts being undertaken by NGOs, SamVidhi has come up with a unique one-of-a-kind program – a fundraiser cum mentorship programme. Our endeavour and aim is to provide mentorship and guidance to law students and aspirants over the duration of next few months. The mentorship shall span the areas of:
- academic planning,
- CV building,
- legal research and writing,
- preparation for competitive examinations,
- applications for graduate programmes (LLMs, PhDs etc.) and scholarships,
- internships and placements at firms (both Indian and Foreign),
- LAMP Fellowship,
- Careers with Civil Societies or International Organisations,
- life in litigation, non-lawyering after a degree in law, and more from legal professionals who have charted these journeys and are continuing to do so.
All the funds raised by SamVidhi through this Mentorship Programme shall be contributed directly to the Uday Foundation. Uday Foundation is a not-for-profit organization based in New Delhi which is working towards COVID-19 relief through three drives: distribution of oxygen concentrators, wellness kits, and dry rations.
