Journalistic Inspiration! 

A little bit more about the scholarship

What Is The Journalistic Inspiration Scholarship?

Have you ever told a story about yourself or others that were inspiring? Have you ever taken a video of yourself telling somebody else's story? If you have ever watched the news about our world, there are always stories going around about inspiring people, and thats because people are looking to be inspired by leaders and trendsetters. But also inspired about how life unfolds itself with beautiful stories of overcoming obstacles that could stop another ten people in their footsteps. These are the stories that inspire others to keep going when times get tough; until they find their own success story. The Journalistic Inspiration! scholarship rewards the storytellers that tell life changing stories of overcoming life's detours.

My Story

My name is Dave and my life story was interupted with disability, hospitalization, and diagnosis thirteen years ago. I was told that I would have a serious disease for the rest of my life and that I should expect to live with limitations to my daily life. But that didn't define me. And it didn't define what I could do. My story could have ended a long time ago, but I keep going, and so do many other people that face different challenges. I'd like to do my best to honor others that go through life difficulties and to inspire others that have faced life's unexpected turns to pick themselves up and see how their story can inspire others.

What Is Your Story?

Embracing a shared sense of community involves revealing one's journey to inspire others. What challenges have marked your path? Perhaps within your circle of friends or family, or maybe someone you've read about or know of has been a driving force behind your daily commitment to giving your best. The Journalistic Inspiration! scholarship is all about sharing these impactful stories to motivate others to persevere, find strength, and appreciate their own journeys. The act of making these personal stories available online is a courageous and proud opportunity for self-reflection. This scholarship is designed to honor exceptional life journeys and celebrate the remarkable ability to transcend any obstacle.
