Congrats, 2025 Scholarship Winners!

SURPRISE! We're beyond thrilled to announce that after a record-breaking number of entries into this year's scholarship contest, we decided to DOUBLE OUR GIVING—awarding $100,000 in scholarships to 50 student members!

We were amazed by the amount of talent packed into every entry—in academic accomplishments, artistic talents, and writing skills. Our Scholarship Committee spent time diving into each and every entry and narrowing them down to our final winners, who will each receive a $2,000 scholarship.

ESSAY SUBMISSION WINNERS:

^{Entrants were asked to write a 750-1,000-word essay identifying a specific place in their community that holds special significance to them or about a community tradition that unites people in their city.}

ART SUBMISSION WINNERS:

^{Entrants were asked to create a drawn or painted art piece depicting something in their community that has positively impacted them—such as a person, organization, event, or place—and a 300-word description.}

RANDOMLY DRAWN BONUS WINNERS:

^{We randomly selected ten bonus winners. Students were able to get an additional bonus entry into this year's contest by taking the time to meet with our Youth & College Support Team to discuss financial aid, college and career planning, or other financial goals.}

Thank you to all who took the time to enter and to those who went the extra step in meeting with our team for a bonus entry! Our next contest will launch in spring of 2026.
