ROAD TO SAFETY SCHOLARSHIPS
Each year, many young lives are drastically changed or cut short by risky behaviors like driving under the influence of alcohol or texting while driving. Motor vehicle crashes involving teenagers are especially heartbreaking, because most of these teen tragedies are fully preventable.
Graduating, college-bound seniors may submit a creative project about the dangers of drunk and/or distracted driving for their chance to win college scholarship money. Selected first, second and third place winners will receive $1,000, $750 and $500 scholarships, respectively.
This year’s contest rules vary slightly from past years. We are no longer accepting written essays. The contest is now geared more towards audio/visual projects.
