Cambridge Green | Boston MA

An idea was conceived by four during the late 90s - a local beautification and tree-planting project to benefit the Harvard Square community in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The concept incubated in the mind of one. It was resuscitated and then transitioned in 2021. Today, with the national focus having shifted onto climate change, Cambridge Green has re-evolved. Brought back as a private endeavor, CGI is an undertaking by retired Wall Street housing developer, law professor and philanthropist, Michael Stuart. He is an alumnus of the Yale School of Architecture's Environmental Design Program and Harvard School of Government's mid-career MPA Program. CGI administers educational activities that support environmental conservation and responsible management of the world's natural resources.

The McCoy Wildlife Refuge at Giddings

Eleanor McCoy has asked the Tax Law Institute to help her establish a development corporation that would convert 45 acres of rural land in central Texas into a wildlife refuge and bird sanctuary. The project would be managed by Ms. McCoy and her family. TLI would work with Ms. McCoy to facilitate incorporation of the development company, and then help the company complete and submit an application for a federal grant to fund and sustain the project through its first year. TLI will also help Ms. McCoy complete and submit the application for 501(c)(3) determination and request for tax-exempt status, if doing so would prove to be beneficial.

The Kidney Transplant Institute Visiting Scholar's Program in Partnership with the HMX Program at Harvard Medical School | Boston MA

Funded by the Tax Law Institute, the Kidney Transplant Institute Visiting Scholar's Program selects individuals to participate in an all-expenses-paid, online series of eight-week course(s) at Harvard Medical School. The program is led by Khadija Y. Deloache who serves as Executive Director.

KTI's primary objective is to encourage research and support for the development of a vaccine to eradicate the BK virus. The BK virus can destroy up to 90% of a graft implanted (kidney transplantation) as an alternative treatment to renal failure. Applicants are required to complete a 300-word essay describing their interest in the program. A six-course, remote curriculum - equivalent study to the first year of medical school - must be completed over an extended period, but each course has a deadline date that must be met to remain in the program. There is no cost to participate. Participants learn online with faculty using weekly assignments transmitted from Harvard Medical School.

KTI places volunteers with transplant clinics, and community and national organizations that advocate and provide renal education.

KTI is headquartered in a virtual office in downtown Boston in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The Institute will begin remote operations as of July 1, 2021.
