We’re excited to bring back the Be the Light Scholarship —an initiative supporting high school students across Austin and surrounding communities. This scholarship recognizes students who lead with character, show up for others, and make a positive impact in the spaces around them.
We’re grateful to have Andress Stanley as part of Mentor-Connect—thank you for sharing your time and perspective with over City of Austin interns, and and for continuing to support students through this scholarship.

About the Scholarship
The Be The Light Scholarship is dedicated to supporting students in Austin, Texas, and surrounding communities who demonstrate leadership, strong character, and a commitment to being a light in the lives of others.
This scholarship is intended especially for students who fall into a financial gap , those who may not qualify for sufficient need-based financial aid but still carry a financial burden while pursuing their education.
By helping ease the cost of college, the Be The Light Scholarship empowers students to focus less on financial stress and more on continuing to grow, lead, and positively impact their campus and community
