Avalaunch Media Scholarship

Education is a core element of our mission and purpose to Launch Brands, People, and Purposes every day. Education is a critical component of personal and professional growth, which is why our agency is committed to giving back to our community by fostering educational opportunities wherever we can.

For over 10 years, we have contributed to higher education through charitable donations, our in-house scholarship program, and helping our clients establish their own scholarship programs. #AvalaunchGivesBack has created educational opportunities for individuals at all stages of their careers within our company and in the broader community.

Who is Eligible:

Current, full-time students of accredited two-year or four-year Utah universities or colleges are welcome to apply. While there is no age requirement, all applicants must be enrolled in a Marketing, Communications, or Creative Arts program with an emphasis in marketing.

How to Apply:

Students who fit the eligibility requirements listed above can apply for the scholarship. To enter, applicants must submit an essay (maximum of 500 words) and an accompanying video (less than 2 minutes) responding to the following prompt:

• Although some don’t know what it is or if it even exists, the legend of the yeti is a tall tale that inspires us at Avalaunch Media. We chose the yeti as our mascot because, like the yeti, digital marketing can sometimes be difficult to understand or quantify — but just as the yeti legend inspires people, Avalaunch Media is inspired by the challenge of creating believers in digital marketing through measurable results. Our abominable snowman, Eddy the Yeti, stands in our office to symbolize our team of digital marketers who believe — and to inspire us to continue pursuing excellence for our clients.

Are you a believer? How have you created believers in yourself and your story?

All candidates must send a link to their video or email their essay to our scholarship committee at scholarship@avalaunchmedia.com. In addition, all participants are required to post their submissions on AT LEAST one of their personal social media accounts.

Upload your video to the social media account of your choice. To share Word documents on your account, you can either load the entire document onto a post OR share a link to the document via Google Docs or another similar platform.
