At the Law Offices of  Potashnik & Associates, we understand, and support, the importance of education. It can be an uphill battle, going to school, especially if you don’t have the proper financial aid. The benefits outweigh the potential obstacles. In order to help make it easier, we’re offering a higher education scholarship, by offering two $500 scholarships.

In order to apply, write a 500+ word essay, on why an education is important. Give us examples of how you’ve persevered through the obstacles in order to get an education.
