Betz & Port Scholarship

Empowering the Next Voice for Justice

Empowring the next voice

At Betz & Port, investing in the next generation of advocates matters.

Every day, we see how strong legal advocacy can change lives, protect individuals, and help people move forward after difficult circumstances. That kind of work begins long before the courtroom. It starts with education, mentorship, and opportunity.

This scholarship supports students who are considering a future in law and are motivated to make a meaningful impact. Whether that means advocating for injured individuals, expanding access to justice, or serving their communities, this is for students ready to take that first step.

We are proud to offer a scholarship to a Minnesota undergraduate student pursuing a path toward a legal career.
