Creating positive change in the world requires the next generation of students to push the envelope by continuing their educational journey.

Unfortunately, the high costs of a college education stand in the way of many students who want to pursue their academic and professional dreams but can’t afford to do so. The growing inaccessibility of higher education affects not only prospective students but also their communities, who miss out on the benefits of their careers.

This scholarship seeks to support students in Texas who are preparing to make the leap from high school to college.

Any high school student in Texas may apply for this scholarship if they enjoy helping others, but those in Royse City School District will be preferred.

To apply, tell us how you can help your community, your experience volunteering or helping others, what your service background has taught you, and how other people can help their communities.
