Investing in Our Future
The lawyers at Simmons and fletcher, P.C., are committed to giving back to the community. One of the best ways for local businesses like us to give back to the community is by investing in the education of our future leaders. That is why we proudly offer college scholarship opportunities to students in various fields of study.
Earning a college degree is arguably one of the most rewarding accomplishments one can achieve in a lifetime. Working hard in college for a few years increases one’s earning potential and substantially expands one’s thinking and social development. Unfortunately, it is also very expensive! The financial burden of college in the United States has earned international recognition, but it is not good.
We at Simmons and Fletcher, P.C. are proud to offer three scholarships to be awarded for the current academic school year. We will notify and announce the winner of each scholarship as well as the second-prize winners via email as well as on our social media, website (below), and by official public press release.
