What Does it Take to Be a Leader in Your Community?

2022 Scholarship Contest Presented by The Law Firm of Aaron Herbert

The Law Firm of Aaron Herbert is happy to introduce our latest scholarship contest for those attending college in Texas.

I chose to become a lawyer because I wanted to help people in my community know their rights. I am starting a scholarship contest because I want to hear from other (future leaders) in my community about their leadership capabilities and what their goals for the future entail. 

Now, I want you to tell me how you make a difference in your community and what type of leadership skills you can teach to others. Please tell me in no more than ~350 words in the most compelling way possible.

Criteria: 

• Write 250 – 300 words about your leadership skills and community service involvement
• While not required we would recommend writing about a volunteer experience or an organization that you are a part of and would like to speak about

What Will Be the Award Amount?

Award amount will be $1,500 to one student.
