True Patriot Essay Contest 2012-2013

$25000 Deadline Date
Sept 01 Awards Available

Scholarship Description

We wrote The True Patriot to spur national conversations about the values and principles that ought to guide our politics — and to inspire civic action consistent with those values. We believe that true patriotism is an inheritance derived from the progressive ideals of our nation's founders, and we believe we have an obligation to pass that inheritance on to the next generation.

To help create this legacy, we are launching a national high school essay contest on the question, "What does true patriotism mean to you?" The prize for the winning essay will be a $25,000 college scholarship. This one-time contest will conclude January 2009 and the winner will be announced prior to the inauguration of the next President.

Our hope is that this scholarship will encourage not only students around the country to engage on these issues, but also the parents, teachers, neighbors and mentors of those students.

Eugene Stephenson Thorpe (1913–2001) was born in Elroy, Wisconsin, and graduated from Cornell University with a degree in civil engineering. An early critic of FDR and the changes his policies made in the fabric of American life, Mr. Thorpe held core beliefs that included hard work, free trade, small government, and self-reliance. He was a longtime supporter of the Foundation for Economic Education and a devoted reader of The Freeman. His children have fittingly established the Eugene S. Thorpe Award as a tribute to his life and ideas.
