BUTLER TOBIN: MAKE-THE-WORLD-BETTER SCHOLARSHIP
Want to make the world a better place? We do too! We’d be honored to help by offering this
$1000.00 scholarship.
At Butler Tobin, we help people and families. We are personal injury lawyers, and we fight against
powerful interests like insurance companies and huge corporations on behalf of people who have
been injured or killed. It is not easy work. Every day we confront adversaries with vast resources
who want to get out of compensating our clients. When we win, we feel like we made the world
a little bit better, especially for our client.
We love to make a difference. When our firm was a part of the team that won a $150 million
verdict against Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and forced a recall of exploding SUVs, we knew our
product liability case made families safer. When we cross-examine a trucking company
executive about truckers who operate their tractor-trailers too long, too fast, or too recklessly,
we incentivize the truck companies to think more carefully about safety. When we take an
insurance company to trial in a car accident case, that insurance company learns
something about what happens when it doesn’t compensate injured people after a
collision. When we help victims of sexual assault or rape stand up to their attackers, we
empower victims to take their lives back.
But those aren’t the only ways to make a difference. We want to help you make the world better
in YOUR way. Your way may be less confrontational than ours. It may take place in another
country. It may involve technology, or connecting people, or educating others. Or maybe your
way doesn’t fit into any category we can imagine. But getting an education is going to help, which
is why we created the BT Backpack Program and why we’re offering this scholarship.
Tell us how YOU want to make the world better.
How to Apply for the $1000 Scholarship
Create a 2-10 minute long video that explains:
what you want to do to make the world a better place,
how you plan to do it, and
one or more GREAT aspects of your plan.
Don’t be afraid to stand out! We love standouts.
Upload your video to YouTube.
Send an email to [email protected] that includes:
your resume
your unofficial transcript
a link to the YouTube video
Make a video you’re proud of! We’ll feature the best video(s) on our website.
