Scholarship Fund for Texas Students
Two friends started a scholarship fund club at their school with a simple goal: raise enough money through fundraising events, including selling goods, to create a scholarship for underprivileged students. What began as a small school club grew into a real commitment to giving other students the same opportunities they've had.
This scholarship is a direct result of that effort, and it's awarded to a students who reflects the same values of hard work and giving back to the community.
This scholarship is open to low-income high school students in Texas with a GPA of 3.7 or higher.
To apply, students must submit an essay describing a time when they demonstrated leadership or made a meaningful contribution to their community, and what they learned about themselves through that experience. Students should also submit a resume.
