Duddy, Goodwin & Pollard Launches 'Community Leader Scholarship' to Support Student Leaders

Duddy, Goodwin & Pollard, a Boston-based law firm, has announced the creation of the 'Community Leader Scholarship,' a $2,500 award designed to support a student who has demonstrated remarkable leadership and service within their community. This initiative underscores the firm's commitment to fostering the next generation of leaders by assisting them in achieving their academic aspirations.

Applicants for the scholarship are required to submit a 1 to 2-minute video responding to the question, 'What is the meaning of service?' These videos, which should be uploaded to YouTube and shared via an unlisted link, along with a completed application form available on the firm's website, offer students a platform to showcase their achievements, challenges overcome, and the positive changes they've driven in underserved communities. The firm is particularly interested in understanding how these experiences have shaped the applicants' growth as leaders.

The deadline for submissions is October 15, 2024, with the winner to be announced via a blog post and press release within three months following the deadline. Duddy, Goodwin & Pollard, known for its dedication to advocating for accident survivors and ensuring their rights to fair compensation, extends its mission of support and advocacy through this scholarship, reinforcing the value of community service and leadership in shaping a better future.
