The Stout Law Firm Family Matters Scholarship

The Stout Law Firm wants to know, “What does family mean to you?”

Stout Law Firm Family Matters Scholarship Contest

A family is important to everyone and what makes a family special isn’t always the same for different people. In our ever-changing society our typical “family structure” is constantly evolving. That’s why we’re asking the question, “What Does Family Mean to You?”

The Stout Law Firm, P.L.L.C. is offering high school and college students across the country a chance at a $1000 dollar scholarship. All you have to do is submit a maximum 500-word essay that explains what family means to you and how your family is important to you.

In an effort to place an emphasis on families and their importance to our communities, we’re asking students to submit their essay on “What Does Family Mean to You?” The winning essay will be posted on The Stout Law Firm Blog and receive $1,000.
