As a leading personal injury law group, Atlanta Car Accident Lawyers is dedicated improving and lifting up our community—and recognizing those who do the same. Our goal is to help all people have equal access to education and civic involvement, especially those with a spirit of volunteerism and community service.

It is for this reason that we are pleased to announce our Atlanta Car Accident Lawyers Community Service Scholarship. This $1,000 scholarship is offered to support one high-achieving, community-minded college student and help them achieve their goals.

For decades, our attorneys have seen that a focus on community service is one of the defining characteristics of future leaders. We believe that service and volunteerism not only help the immediate recipients, but strengthen our community overall. It builds bonds between people of many backgrounds, fosters empathy and understanding, and shapes the growth of those who serve. This spirit of voluntary service is one of the oldest American values and one which continues improve our shared society.

To bolster this work, our law group offers a scholarship to students who have shown an outstanding commitment to volunteerism and community service. We believe that education and service are two pillars of development for our future leaders, and find great meaning in helping dedicated individuals achieve their educational and career goals.

The Atlanta Car Accident Lawyers Community Service Scholarship is a $1,000 grant to a single student. We look forward to making this investment in our shared future, and we encourage all eligible individuals to apply.
