Amethyst Recovery Center is offering a $500 scholarship to a college or university student who effectively demonstrates a strong aptitude for writing.

Writing skills are essential in many fields of employment, even those that do not center around communication. Those who possess superior writing skills present the professional edge that will help them to be successful in pursuing their dreams of employment.
Even if an employment position is not in the field of communication, possessing a vast vocabulary, a strong understanding of grammar, and a fluid writing ability will enable individuals to use their skills to effectively communicate through email, letters, texts, and other methods of written communication which are required in many sectors of employment.

Amethyst is passionate about helping people succeed in reaching their goals and this is why they are proud to present their scholarship offer.
