Zavalla Students Scholarship
Zavalla, Texas is a small town and underserved rural community that is home to only around six hundred people.
Many students have big dreams for their futures despite their humble beginnings, yet they lack meaningful access to higher education due to financial limitations, little knowledge or family experience in the world of academia, or other factors that hinder their ambition.
This scholarship aims to support students from Zavalla so they can overcome the barriers they face, accomplish their goals, and uplift their community.
Any high school senior or high school graduate in Zavalla, Texas, who will pursue any form of higher education may apply for this scholarship opportunity if they have volunteering experience. While students pursuing two or four-year degrees are eligible, applicants planning to attend a trade school or college for training in things such as electrical, plumbing, HVAC, cosmetology, accounting, and IT, are especially encouraged to apply.
To apply, tell us about yourself, why college isn’t the only path to success, and how you would use your education to better your life and your community. Additionally, upload images of places in your community you could improve with your training or education.
