We are proud to announce that Joye Law Firm has awarded seven scholarships to exceptional high school seniors across South Carolina. This year, six students received a $2,000 Joye Law Firm Scholarship, and one student was awarded the $2,000 HBCU scholarship.

In addition to the student scholarships, each recipient nominated a teacher for recognition. These nominated teachers were also awarded $250, acknowledging their pivotal role in shaping and supporting the students’ educational journeys.

Our scholarship program, founded in the 2005-2006 school year, aims to support and encourage the academic pursuits of South Carolina’s brightest young minds. We are grateful to our scholars, teachers, and their families for their hard work and commitment. We eagerly anticipate the launch of next year’s scholarship program in February, and look forward to continuing our support for education in our community.

Congratulations to all our scholars and their nominated teachers!
