Virginia Focused Driver Scholarship
Scholarship Sponsored by Cooper Hurley Injury Lawyers
Value: $2,000.00
Awards Available: 3
For years, the attorneys at Cooper Hurley Injury Lawyers have been supporting good causes in our community and taking on young people as interns. We started our scholarship program to raise awareness about the dangers of distracted driving and to get students to think about ways to stay focused behind the wheel. Distracted driving is one of the most significant causes of accidents involving young people, and it is our goal that this scholarship will get applicants to think critically about those dangers and how they can be avoided by staying focused while driving. For this scholarship, we will award three students with $2,000 Scholarships to put toward their education.
