VanDerGinst Law, P.C.
congratulates all of our 2003 scholarship recipients!

Each year, VanDerGinst Law, P.C. proudly sponsors a scholarship competition. Entrants are graduating seniors intending to go to college. Applicants then vie for scholarship money via an essay contest. This year, entrants were asked to submit a 500 - 1,000 word essay that best answered the question "How does our legal system help provide for our safety?"

A panel of judges, which included community leaders, local media and legal professionals, reviewed all the essays and selected ten of the best entries. The winners each received a $1000.00 scholarship. The following essays were selected as the scholarship winners for 2003. Congratulations to all our scholarship winners!
