About CAN Foundation

The CAN Foundation is an entity established for working towards promotion of students/alumni connected with all the National Law Universities of the nation. The Foundation, which is a body of Alumni drawn from various NLUs is conceptualised as a helping hand to help the financially underprivileged legal geniuses in overcoming their hardships. Our focus is on a robust integration of the student community with the already well-established Alumni in such a fashion that it chalks a way for more opportunities within the different avenues of law.
