 "Your Voice Matters  -- If I could tell people just one thing about voting in local elections, it would be this: your voice has power—way more than you might realize." 

Quoted from 2025 scholarship winner Eliza Kelly's essay.

 

"I believe that voting in local elections is crucial for shaping the community we live in, and it’s essential to encourage citizens to register and participate. To persuade citizens to register and vote, I would focus on a few things: the impact of local decisions, the importance of community engagement, and the accessibility of the voting process." 

Quoted from 2025 scholarship winner Kaylen Garza's essay.
