Blaine Barrilleaux Brings Back His Scholarship for 2022
LAFAYETTE, La., March 16, 2022 (Newswire.com) - Lafayette injury lawyer Blaine J. Barrilleaux is bringing back his annual scholarship, which awards one Louisiana high school senior $1,000 to put towards higher education expenses. From the large number of scholarship applicants every year, the local injury attorney chooses one student who shows academic promise and a strong drive to give back to the community.
"Our goal is to help those in our community so they can, in turn, give back to younger generations when they're older." - Blaine Barrilleaux.
The long-term vitality of a community depends on engaged and empowered younger generations stepping up to fill their elders' shoes, and Blaine is delighted to have the ability to help make education more accessible for another future leader with this year's scholarship.
Blaine Barrilleaux Continues to Support Local Students
Educating our young people is crucial to ensuring a bright future for generations to come. However, higher education is expensive, and some students struggle to afford the expenses associated with going to college.
As a native Lafayette injury lawyer, Blaine J. Barrilleaux is passionate about making education more widely available and giving young people the tools they need in order to become effective leaders and change-makers.
This is why The Law Offices of Blaine Barrilleaux created its annual scholarship, which chosen applicants are free to use for any educational-related expenses they incur while attending a two- or four-year accredited college. Previous winners have put the money towards tuition, books, and the commute to and from campus.
The scholarship application consists of a brief essay, a bio, and list of extracurricular activities; for application details, see the Blaine Barrilleaux Scholarship page on the firm's website. Students wishing to be considered for the scholarship should have their applications in by May 30, 2022; the winner will be selected on July 6.
