Sheboygan Lions Club Scholarship

I strongly believe that I deserve the “Courage to Grow” Scholarship, because not only am I a dedicated and hardworking growing young adult, but I also incorporate those traits to what I value the most, school. Ever since I started school, I have worked hard to where I am now. I have a 3.8 G.P.A. On a 4.0 scale which I have worked long nights for. Since throughout all of high school I have been, an still am, involved in many extracurriculars such as DECA, Interact Club, Spanish Honor Society but also managed to be involved in sports as well like Indoor Track and Field, Outdoor Track and Field and Cheerleading. Being a top, varsity athlete in all, has taught me many valuable traits which have helped also become a wonderful young adult.

I believe I should be selected for the Schulich Leader Scholarship because I have been academically successful, demonstrate leadership capabilities, and believe that my dreams and creativity will allow me to paint the future with bright colours, for myself and others. My experiences make me unique from anyone else, and I hope to do myself justice in six hundred words.

\ First of all, the lions club has helped a lot for me and the community of Groom. The Groom Lions Club Scholarship will help me with my intention of going to Amarillo College to get my Criminal Justice degree and any other courses that I would have to take to be able to join the Amarillo Police Academy. The scholarship money would also help me to pay for any books that I would need for those classes.

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

I think I would be a good recipient for this scholarship. Due to my academic achievements and because my parents moved to the United States to give their children a better life and education. With this, my parents have instilled in me a dream to graduate college and become successful. My mother is always telling me how she wants me to do something great with my life, and she keeps on encouraging me to get through college even if money is tight. She reminds me and my siblings that we can never give up and that we have to push forward because she has sacrificed so much so we can be where we are now. I am extremely grateful to Rich Mountain Community College for providing concurrent college classes at Wickes/Cossatot River High School because it gave me a great opportunity to get ahead in college. I currently, have 53 hours, and I currently hold a 3.2 GPA this semester. This has not been easy, since I work part time, but it does show me I am capable of doing it. With personal commitment and determination, I know I have the power to excel in my all classes.

I believe I am uniquely qualified to become a recipient of the Matteson rotary scholarship. I am a dedicated, hardworking student who made a commitment to “Service above Self,” something the Rotary stands for. Attending a college prep charter high school, where extracurricular activities are encouraged, I became an active member of the student council - elected student council president in my junior and senior years, inducted into the National Honor Society, became a member of the InterAct Community Service Club, member of the Dance Team, member of the Media Club, Captain of the Track, Cross-Country and Basketball teams, maintained a 3.9 GPA, and all while playing a key role in organizing social, cultural and community events for the school, and leading group meetings for the various organizations.

I believe I should receive a Missouri Bankers Foundation Scholarship for numerous reasons. I have achieved academic excellence all four years of high school and continuously show my initiative through work and school achievements. Throughout high school, I have taken seven college courses, achieving a B or above in every course. In addition, Ste. Genevieve High School hosts a Honor’s Banquet every year rewarding students for academic prosperity in their classes. I have received three of these awards for the following classes: Play Production, FACS, and Algebra I. I take pride in earning perfect attendance my Sophomore and Junior year of high school and being absent only one day of school my Freshman year.

I grew up in a small farming town and I had no idea about agriculture or leadership. I have been in the FFA since the seventh grade and fell in love with it right away. The FFA helped me get a better view of how important the ag experience is for young students across the United States. Going to local or state contest, helping with the community, and helping out FFA Chapter grow over the past years was something i wanted to do. Waking up in the morning at five a.m for football practice was terrible, but waking up at five to go to an FFA event was a different feeling. I want to continue in some way my FFA experience when I leave for college. I believe I would be a good recipient of this FFA Scholarship because it is a passion I have had

I believe there is a reason for every opportunity given to a person. I applied for the Alumni Chapter Scholarship for many reasons. The primary reason is because I believe in school pride. A pride that will carry on for the rest of one’s life. I believe the alumni of Truman State University are the basis of such a notable school. I choose Truman because helping people is my passion. The staff and students epitomized who I aspire to be--loving and caring. I hope to pursue my yearning passion through counseling. Counseling allows direct contact with people in need of help. Currently, I volunteer for many different activities in order to help those people. My personal goal has gratefully been achieved. My goal in life was to be happy, and then

To conclude, I would be an excellent candidate for the TD Scholarship for Community Leadership because I am doing my best to shape the future generation to be informed, caring citizens who are able to make a difference in the

Being awarded the USA National Alumni Association Freshman Leadership Scholarship would have a benefit me in my academics, activities, and leadership. I have applied for more than twenty scholarships, and have yet to be awarded one, however, this scholarship could change all of that. Academically, this scholarship would allow me to pursue my dreams of becoming a physical therapist without having to break the bank. This scholarship would also allow me to reach my goal of completing the physical therapy doctorate program with no debt. This scholarship would allow me to be more focused on my school work and less worried about the financial side of attending such a great university. My activities in college will also be positively affected by

Receiving this $500.00 scholarship will help me in reaching my career goal of being a social worker because my parents are not financially stable to help put through schools. I feel that this is a great opportunity for me because I will be able to pursue my dream of being a social worker. This scholarship will help me in a way to give back to my community. I want to be a social worker because I want to be able to help young people who were in the same situation or similar situations as I was as a child. Helping children has always been a dream of mine, considering that I felt as if I had no one on my side. I want to be the light in someone’s dark path, always there in any way that I can be. I know that this scholarship will help me because

Nonetheless, I believe I’m an extraordinary candidate for the living scholarship. Certainly, I am extremely passionate about helping and motivating my fellow members to succeed. I will always set the example that it is possible to excel not only in the classroom, but in the life as well. I am responsible, disciplined, and highly respectful at all times. I am a very positive person and I don’t give up even when things get rough. I fully understand when it’s time to get serious. I have 250 volunteer hours all from my high

As a 17-year-old senior at Bessemer City High, I am truly honored to have a chance to apply for the Ora H. Foster community Service Scholarship. Growing up I have always had a passion for community service. I love the feeling of helping others, without expecting anything in return. For about 2 years now, I have been involved in a number of clubs and community activities. I am involved SGA (Student Government Association), Beta Club, and National Technical Honors at my school, and have done volunteer work for councilmen Cynthia S. Donald. Whenever I am available, I try to be a part of any community service project activities in or outside of school. I also hold down a part-time job at Zaxbys as a cook, where I have an opportunity to learn

Overall, earning a scholarship will allow me to earn a degree in college, which will increase my ability to give back to my community, as well as my ability to support my family. Thank you for the honor of allowing me to share my story. Hopefully, the LEAD Foundation will assist me in my plans of achieving higher bars of
