Calling all vegetarian teens—your compassion is being rewarded!

The Vegetarian Resource Group offers $10,000 in scholarships each year to students who have been active in the promotion of vegetarianism and kindness at their high schools.

Two students are going to receive a fat check of $5,000 each for their college expenses—make sure that student is you! For all the official scholarship rules and requirements, check out VRG.org.

    This should have also applied to transfer students who are transferring from a community/junior college to a 4 year university. If you could please change the requirements, that would be great! There are such few scholarships to reward and recognize us vegetarians.

    Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.

    Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.

    Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ

    I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!

    I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.
