Apply now for a $30k VFW scholarship

The deadline for a $30,000 VFW scholarship is fast approaching.

The Voice of Democracy audio-essay scholarship is available to high school students. Home school or home study students are also eligible.

The first-place winner receives a $30,000 scholarship. Other national winners receive $1,000-$16,000. First-place winners from each state are also flown to Washington D.C., courtesy of the state VFW Department.

To apply, applicants must write an essay and record it to a CD. This year’s essay topic is Why Veterans are Important to our Nation’s History and Future.

The CD, a copy of the essay and application form are due to a participating VFW no later than Nov. 1, 2014.
