Write an essay about a personal encounter you or someone you know has had with drug and/or alcohol abuse. In your essay, please explain how the situation was dealt with, what you learned from it, what others can learn from the experience, and what was right or wrong (in your opinion) about how the incident or problem was handled. Scholarship essays are judged like essays written for a high school English class: thesis statement, supporting content, grammar, punctuation, etc. Essays must be typed, double-spaced, and 650–800 words. Essays must include an official copy of your high school transcripts. Essays must also include a recent photo. Scholarship winners will have their picture reprinted in our magazine along with their winning essay, so please send a good-quality color photo (no blurry printouts).
