2012 Joye Law Firm Scholarship Program



Dear Graduating Seniors:

As you prepare to embark on your journey after graduation, Joye Law Firm is offering an opportunity to win a college scholarship to aid in furthering your education. Our firm will be offering six $2,000 scholarships to graduating seniors who are chosen by our selection committee as having achieved success in high school, having written the best essay, and who have also applied and plan to attend a four-year institution of higher learning. The scholarships are being offered to seniors at any high school in the low country, Grand Strand, or Pee Dee areas of South Carolina.

To qualify for the scholarship program, please provide

  1. A typewritten or neatly printed application that is completely filled out. (You must have Adobe Reader to read this file.)
  2. A current high school transcript.
  3. A signed, typewritten essay on the following topic (350 to 500 words):

  4. One of your fellow classmates, who was driving home from a party, has died in a car crash. Two other classmates were in the car with him and were severely injured but survived. Police say that all three had been drinking alcohol and that the driver was speeding and lost control of the car.

    You are determined to make sure this never happens to another friend. What could you and your friends have done to prevent this tragedy? What can we, as a community, do to get the message across that drinking and driving KILLS?

Return your application, transcript, and essay no later than April 2, 2012. Send materials to:
