Hurry, There's Still Time! Thousands of Dollars in Scholarship Money is Available!
Calling all members of Machinists Union District 141! If you've ever considered continuing your education or know someone who is, now is the time to take advantage of the unique opportunity before you - the 2023 Adolph Stutz Memorial Scholarship Essay Competition. This is no ordinary competition; there's an abundance of unclaimed scholarship money waiting for worthy candidates. Thousands of dollars are up for grabs and could go home with you or a family member!
Currently, more scholarships are available than entries, which means your odds of securing one are higher than ever. The deadline to submit entries is fast approaching: midnight, July 15, 2023. So, we strongly urge you to put pen to paper, or rather, fingers to keyboard, and get your entries in!
The scholarship is open to children, spouses, and dependent grandchildren of members who've been in good standing for a year or more (as of June 1, 2022) in District Lodge 141. These members should be graduating high school seniors or enrolled full-time in a college or trade school. Our members enrolled in college or trade school, taking at least six units per semester, are also eligible to enter the competition. Only one award per family is allowed. And, if you've already won a scholarship, you'll have to sit this it out.
The 2023 essay competition asks you to delve into the subject, "Public approval of labor unions among the U.S. public is at its highest level since 1965, according to a new Gallup poll. Are U.S. labor unions making a comeback? Yes or no? Why?" Your essay must be between 700 to 1,000 words and submitted as a Microsoft Word document to dan@bleicomm.com. Please include a recent photograph of yourself, place the title and your name at the top of the document, and include a bibliography of sources for your essay material. To ensure that the work submitted is entirely yours - authenticity matters!
The awards are too big to miss. One overall winner will be awarded $2,000, and six placement winners will each receive $1,000. The winners will be announced around August 1, 2023, after careful and impartial judgment by an outside Scholarship Committee chaired by Daniel Brin.
The winning contestants will be honored at a local lodge ceremony and published by Machinists Union District 141.
This is a tremendous opportunity to let your voice be heard, gain recognition, and secure funding for your education. So why wait?
Take up your metaphorical pen and begin crafting your thoughts. We look forward to reading your entries! Don't let this opportunity and the unclaimed scholarship money go to waste. Hurry, the competition ends soon!
