2024 Empowering Our Elders Scholarship

At Tully Law Group we understand the impact that elders have on shaping our lives and communities. Their wisdom and experiences enrich us all, yet their well-being is often vulnerable and requires dedicated legal protections. That’s why we’re excited to announce the Empowering Our Elders Scholarship.

This scholarship is more than just financial support; it’s an opportunity for students to delve into the significance of our senior population and the critical role of elder law. We aim to cultivate a new generation of advocates who not only recognize but actively champion the rights and well-being of our elders.

Join us in honoring and empowering our elders by exploring the legal frameworks that support them as they age. Together, let’s ensure they continue to receive the respect and care they deserve. Write an essay about how you can empower the elderly population in your community—whether through community service, healthcare, legal advocacy, or any other field that impacts their well-being.
