Supporting Our Heroes Scholarship

Scholarship For Students Advocating On Behalf Of Veterans
A disabled veteran himself, Attorney Edward M. Farmer’s experience in the Iraq War opened his eyes not only to what service men and women experience in combat, but what they experience when they get home as well. As a result, Attorney Farmer is using his platform to take the opportunity to give back to the community by supporting students who are dedicated to working in a career advocating for veterans’ rights and issues.

The Law Office of Edward M. Farmer now offers one $1,000 scholarship per semester to undergraduate or graduate students who wish to pursue a career in advocating on behalf of veterans. The Supporting Our Heroes Scholarship is currently open to applications for the Spring 2025 semester.
