Tell us about how you have made an impact on a community you are a part of. This could be your geographic community, your school, or even a hobby, sport, or special interest group. Talk about the positive contributions you have made to and/or innovative ways you have impacted your community.  You can talk about these contributions in an essay form, a video, a piece of artwork, or any medium you believe best suits you and your interests. You are encouraged to be creative; however, a well-written descriptive essay is sufficient to apply to this scholarship.  Essays should be limited to no more than two pages in length (approximately 500 words).  If you would like to include a link to a video you may do that in the text box below.
