Help Struggling student

The transition from high school and college and your adolescence to adulthood is a challenge for everyone. But when the parent of a young person dies, it becomes much more difficult, especially if their mom or dad had little or no life insurance coverage. The financial difficulties that result often feel insurmountable. These difficult times are then coupled with pain and, often, children thrust into adult roles to financially support the family or parenting younger siblings.

Such situations are ripe for the kids to just give up on their dreams of obtaining a college education.

This is why every year, the life lessons Scholarship Program grants scholarships only these deserving students. This year, life happens awarded 46 Life Lessons scholarships totaling $ 175,000.

Moving forward after the loss

Mikaela and Sonia are two recipients of scholarships. Their lives were shattered when their parent, and in the case of Sonia, parents and guardians are dead. They remain firm in their dream of getting a college education, however.

Both have been awarded $ 7,500 scholarships, through the Scholarship Program Life Lessons. As part of the scholarship application process, they presented a video about how their lives were changed when their parents died with little or no life insurance.

We ask that you click and view their stories, "like" posts on Facebook, then share them with others. We hope their stories, we can raise awareness of this growing problem. We know that most parents, if they could see their own children through the eyes of Sonia and Mikaela, would get life insurance they need.

For every "like" on these messages and videos viewed from now until June 30, life happens will donate an additional $ 1 to the scholarship fund up to $ 4,000. Look like and share
