Taking on new challenges can be difficult, especially when others say we should avoid them. The legal team at jD LAW understands this firsthand: whenever we choose to take on a new case, others would advise us not to, saying it is not our battle to fight. But when we take on a case, we stand by our convictions and clients all the way to trial. Now, we want to stand by the students who have chosen to stand up for what they believe is right by offering the Against the Current Scholarship.
This scholarship is open to residents of San Diego County only and shall provide two high school seniors or current college students with $500 towards their post-secondary educational expenses. Students in good standing with their schools may apply with the application below. All we ask is that you write a 500-1,000 word essay explaining a time you fought for something you believed was right.
The deadline to apply is May 5th, 2021. Once we have reviewed every application, we will announce the winners on June 2nd. Good luck to every applicant!
