I Want To Pursue Scholarship

Citizens giving back and providing effective leadership in a community are incontrovertibly important. Clayton and MaryAnn Mathile demonstrated this by dedicating their lives to community service and leadership. Likewise, I have participated in multiple volunteer activities and acted as a leader in several situations. For example, I regularly serve at a daily needs assistance organization in my community. I have also spent years in leadership positions as a member of The Boy Scouts of America. I deserve to win the Mathile Scholarship, as I have dedicated countless hours serving various communities, I have spent years in positions of leadership, and I have several other qualities worthy of recondition.

To have a deep down experience on my career goal, I had taken an opportunity to intern at the city of Aurora Public Defender Office during the fall of 2015 where I learned and got more inspired to follow this field. During my internship, I learned that being a lawyer is more than what we see on the TV and it can be very emotional sometimes with cases, but seeing all these cases has inspired me, even more, to go into this field. By receiving this scholarship, I will be more motivated to attend college and pursue my dream of becoming an immigration lawyer. With my family economy situation, my parents can’t afford to pay for my post-secondary education so receiving this scholarship will extremely help

The Anna Dale Dalton Competitive Scholarship Award on behalf of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated would invigorate my determination to change the community around me. I always strive to serve my community in four tiers. The first tier, Scott County High School, is the most immediate to me. In the past year I have established a library of resources solely dedicated to Advanced Placement, SAT, and ACT review materials that any student has access to. I have done this because Scott County High School has the largest Advanced Placement Program in the state of Kentucky, one that I have helped nurture for the past three years through my position as President of Advanced Placement Advisory Council. When the school board refused to allow the

As a Jackson Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corp Cadet and Police Explorer, upon acceptance of this scholarship I will be able to contribute to society. How might you ask? Throughout my high school career I was taught the value of serving and protecting the community. “Integrity first, service before self, and excellence in all we do” was the motto taught to me by the AF Jr. ROTC program . “Class two line of blue law enforcement through and through” was the motto taught to be by the Youth police academy. These motto’s reflect everything that I stand for, everything that I believe in. That if I was ever to gained the privilege of

I should be awarded the Beauty P. Baldwin Scholarship due to my ambition and ability to succeed inside and outside of the classroom. I always strive to be the best I can be whether it is at school, home, or anywhere else. I love learning something new and expanding my knowledge by showing what I know. Helping people and volunteer work is one the main things that I enjoy doing each year because I like people to know that they are cared for. Having done lots of volunteer work like Toys for Tots, Jasmine's Closet, the Safehouse Outreach, and many other programs, I have realized the need helping people is at an all time high. All of these events that are listed are geared to helping people that are living without a good shelter, food, and people

I believe that I am a good candidate for the Amy L. McKee-Everett Memorial Scholarship due to my caring and loving nature. An excellent example would be the time I gave back to Flat Rock River YMCA Camp this year, during New Years Eve. I volunteered as a counselor to a group of amazing girls. I wanted to volunteer my time, seeing that Flat Rock had done so much for me, in my seven years as a camper. It was time to give back. The 53 hours of time I spent helping out with all the girls, was immensely rewarding. I wouldn't trade my experiences I have had with Flat Rock River YMCA Camp for the world. This experience made me a better person, and will carry over into my undergraduate years of college. I am going into my freshman year bearing skills

This scholarship award has improved my experience at school over the past year by alleviating the stress and worry that would have been put on me had I not been able to afford to go to school. Due to the help that I was given through this scholarship last year, I was also given a boost of confidence in my academic abilities and was named to the Dean’s list for both fall 2014, as well as spring 2015.In the upcoming academic school year I will be starting my clinical classes. I am very excited for these because they will help me determine what field I want to focus on in nursing. However, for my sophomore year I have decided to live off grounds in an apartment with two other girls so I may have to pick up a part-time job. I feel that this is will give me experience in the adult world. My future goals are to continue with the nursing program and then to enlist in the

I am currently a sophomore undergraduate Marketing major and Digital Studies minor. If I receive the scholarship the financial contributions NSCS has provided will be of great assistance in paying my educational expenses. I plan to study aboard in Spain over the summer to study Spanish and International Business. With help from the generous scholarship, I will be one step closer to achieving my educational and career goals. I believe I deserve to earn the scholarship because my involvement at the University of Mary Washington depicts my dedication and persistence in giving back to the school and the community while putting my education to good use. One way in which I am using my education to enrich my time at UMW is through my work with Community Outreach and Resources. My time at COAR has given me a deep appreciation for how volunteerism

My commitment to service was also recognized by Cook County Sheriff, Tom Dart, when I received the Sheriff Tom Dart Youth Service Award; however, this is not about me. For those that have dedicated their lives to service, understand the commitment to continue the fight in helping others and always reaching back. I remain resolute and will continue working diligently until I reach my collegiate and career goals. I will continue to improve my own community’s quality of life by doing volunteer work. This scholarship will assist me in obtaining some of the necessary school materials enabling me to continue to work hard academically. I am hopeful to become one of your foundation’s scholarship recipients, so that I can continue on my pathway graduating college and pursuing my dreams of attending medical school to become a successful

I believe that I am a worthy candidate for this scholarship due to my recognition of the financial impact of college. Growing up in a single parent home has been a financially and emotionally difficult feat for my mother and myself. When I was seven years old, my father passed away from a blood clot. During his life, he served in Vietnam, where he was granted a Purple Heart after shattering his kneecap on a landmine. He was on disability, and my mother was employed as a rehabilitation nurse, the only source of income in our family. After his death, my mother and I both began to go to therapy for our grief over losing my father. Focusing on my mental health helped me accept the meaning of death, and struck my motivation to honor my father and ensure that he would be proud of me. When I grew up, we always relied on getting clothes from thrift stores to save money and cutting any unnecessary expenditures. My mother always worked to have enough money for food and comfort. I received monetary Survivor Benefits after his death until my high school graduation this past May. As mentioned before, my mother has Multiple Sclerosis, which is an unfortunately expensive illness. Shortly after her diagnosis, the rehabilitation unit of her work closed and she was left on unemployment right before my sophomore year of high school. I was not old enough to drive or work, so finances were incredibly strict. On my 16th birthday, I attended an orientation to work as a lifeguard at our local YMCA. The next day, I also got my license to eliminate transportation issues. My employment alleviated financial and emotional stress on my mother, as I was able to contribute to the bills and my personal expenses. Throughout my life, my mother has also been very dependent on alcohol to relieve stress. There were numerous times where I

I believe I am worthy of the honorable Town of Sheboygan Lions Club Scholarship, due to the fact that I uphold the same philosophy of WE SERVE and above all, I understand the value of higher education. Additionally, I deserve this scholarship as a result of my previous achievements which indicate my future success in education. Further, I am persistent, greatly wishing to help others achieve their goals as a friend and peer. I know I demonstrate the drive and values our community searches for. On a similar note, the funds will not simply be supporting my degree. If I receive the scholarship, the funds will be going to support my education in a facility in which I will be supporting others through my leadership roles. Specifically, as I continue

Thank you for the opportunity of allowing me to be a finalist for the Daniel’s Fund Scholarship. I am a high school senior enrolled as a concurrent enrollment student at the Community College of Aurora through my high school, Vista Academy. I am also a first generation prospective college student with a Mexican background. Neither of my parents went to college, though, I know in my heart I need to earn a college degree; they are my motivation. I also know in my heart that I will be a great Daniel’s Fund Scholar because I possess maturity, strength of character, leadership, a well rounded personality in one way, shape, or manner.
