Are you a U.S. citizen and a high school upperclassman or a current college student? If so, consider applying for the Courage to Grow Scholarship! Each month, the scholarship awards $500 to a student who submits the most thoughtful essay (maximum of 250 words) about why they should be awarded the scholarship. As the scholarship is monthly, the deadlines are the last day of each month. Thus, if you don’t win once, you can always try again! The scholarship was created to help students realize their college dreams by taking away some of the financial concerns surrounding college. 

If you’re a college-bound high school upperclassman or a current college student in need of financial help, we encourage you to apply!
