$1,000 | Easy Scholarship: Boost a Friend's Self-Esteem by Posting About Their Best Qualitie
Info:
Applicant must be between the ages of 13 and 25.
Negative self-image has been found to play a role in the development of mental health issues like depression and anxiety, but positive messages from friends can have a huge impact on young people's self-image, self-esteem, and mental health.
That's where you come in! You can win an easy $1,000 scholarship by posting or sharing a photo of a friend, and highlighting their best qualities that a photo couldn't fully capture. In the caption of your post, use #WhatsNotPictured and include "text CARE to 38383," where friends can access additional mental health resources.
You'll make a serious difference for your friends, and you'll be entered for a chance to win a $1,000 scholarship. Win-win!
