OFAC Law Group Eco-Friendly Scholarship

OFAC Law Group focuses its practice on representing individuals who need assistance with sanctions compliance, export controls, OFAC licensing, and anti-money laundering regulations. The role of an OFAC sanctions attorney is as complex as it is necessary. This is due to a constantly-changing list of rules and regulations as foreign policies are created or revised.

At OFAC Law Group, we recognize the importance of adhering to the Office of Foreign Assets Control and the power of effective cooperation. We also value students who strive to improve their environment through collaboration. We believe that dedicating personal time to bettering others and the environment is a commendable quality worth rewarding with financial support and academic recognition.

Whether these efforts are carried out through an organization, a local community club, or among friends, OFAC Law Group appreciates the hard work citizens invest in environmental improvement. To support these high-achieving students, we are proud to announce the OFAC Law Group Eco-Friendly Scholarship. This scholarship will award $1,000 to a deserving student who has shared coherent ideas on how to volunteer time to enhance the environment or has already implemented effective examples for others to follow.
