            Each year the Foundation gives a permanent scholarship in honor of Esther R. Rothstein who, until her death in 1998, led the Foundation for two decades in raising funds for scholarships for women attending Illinois law schools.  In addition, in 2004, the Foundation added a permanent scholarship in honor of Chief Justice Mary Ann McMorrow, who was active in the early years of the Foundation and continues to support the Foundation's scholarship activities.  

            To support the above scholarships, as well as the other scholarships that the Foundation awards each year, donations can be made to the Women’s Bar Foundation by check or credit card (MasterCard or VISA).  Checks, made payable to the Women’s Bar Foundation, should be sent to the Foundation at the following address:
