Deserving A Scholarship

I am the most deserving of the Bryan Durkin Memorial Scholarship simply because I am committed to furthering my education, and have shown that commitment in many different ways throughout my high school career.

I believe I should be awarded this scholarship because I have great leadership and many other great characteristics. I helped raise awareness of obesity in our county to help in getting our percentage back down. I mentored younger children that came from low-wage families on why it was so important to eat right and get an adequate amount of activities, as well as rest each and every day. I did this by using the "GO, SLOW, WHOA" program to make it easier for kids to understand what foods are "go" foods which you can eat as much as you want, which foods are "slow" foods which are foods you should only eat every now and then, and which food is "whoa" foods which you should try to avoid this foods when ever possible.

Now that I’ve covered why I financially need this scholarship, let me explain why I have earned it. This past year has been a whirlwind. I ended my junior year with 34 credit hours, 20 of which were earned second

I deserve this scholarship because I am hard working and it wouldn’t be a waste of money on some dumb teenager and because my parents don’t have a lot of money, but I also deserve it because I want to go to college to be a police officer and protect the american people, change how police officers are looked at and so I can serve justice to people who deserve

I would be honored to receive this scholarship because I am hardworking, dedicated, and try always to be a good role model for others. I am involved in many different things in the school and in the community - from clubs to sports teams to Student Council, where I have always try to do the best I can do. I have maintained good grades and been on honour roll, even while struggling with sickness throughout the year.

I work hard for what I want and what that is now is to get a college degree from Marshall University. I believe I should be selected to receive this scholarship because not only am La dedicated student academically, I am also devoted to helping my community through community service. I hope that I will be able to use my education to give back to my community in someway. Education is a major key to success not only in the workforce but in life in general, because it is the one thing that no one can take away from me. To receive this scholarship would give be a greater chance to be successful in my

I should be the recipient of this scholarship because I have worked hard throughout my high school career so that I could be accepted in to the college of my choice and pursue a career in nursing. Since I have been accepted to my chosen college, I am now trying to pay for my college education with the fewest amount of student loans possible. With the help of this scholarship I would be able to take some of the stress of paying for college off of my parents and I.

Altogether, I believe that I deserve the scholarship because I am a diligent worker who seeks to make a positive change in the world. With a fully-enriched education, I can make that

I believe I am a great candidate for this scholarship because of my qualifications. I am a people person who puts others first. My passion is helping people, especially those who are vulnerable and in need. Therefore, I chose nursing as a career because it coincides with my passion. In the past few years I have gained strong communication skills that have helped me become a better person. I am always advocating for my patients and making sure that their needs and wants are priority over all things. With my communication skills I am able to collaborate with nurses, doctors, and other members of my patients care team to make sure they get the best care possible.

The reason I should be nominated for the scholarship opportunities is that it will give me an opportunity to go to college and further my education. With this I could have the capability to do a great amount of change while furthering my education. Being nominated for one of these scholarships could potentially help my family and I pay for college tuition. Having the opportunity to attend college would be a whole different experience that I would like to be able to have. The reason I should be nominated for the scholarship is because it would allow me to further my education and be able to afford it.

There are many others who probably deserve this scholarship more than me. I cannot fabricate a story to make me sound more deserving. I have already been to school more than once, and I am just now allowing myself to do something I have always wanted to do. If nothing else, I want a scholarship so that I can have a better redo. True, I am not a first time student, but with my experiences already, I will make better use of the resources given to

I, Ladaisha Samone Ballard, am a sophomore at East Mississippi Community College. I am 19 years old and I plan to attend The University of West Alabama in the fall. With this being said, I am beyond honored to know that I will have the Grade Point Average that will stand out.

I am the only person in my mother’s household that attends college, so this is pushing me to higher my education. I come from
