Everyday Heroes Scholarship

To each and every member of the Milford High School Class of 2024, we are very honored to offer 4 scholarships in Lucas's name.

The Everyday Heroes Scholarship

This scholarship has been established to honor the legacy of MHS student, Lucas R. Denommee. Funds were graciously made available by donations to the Lucas Denommee Legacy Fund, whose mission is to spread awareness, provide resources and establish a sense of community to those impacted by mental illness and suicide. Any and all graduating students may apply for this scholarship, regardless of intentions of furthering their education, their GPA, gender, sexual preference or extracurricular activities.

Deadline:

April 20, 2024

Responses should be sent to: lucasdenommeelegacy@gmail.com

In order to be considered for one of the four (4) scholarships, applicants must answer ONE out of the three following prompts:

1.) Out of the ashes, a hero arose…” finish the rest.

(The submission is not required to be in writing, there is no minimum word requirement; the applicant is encouraged to respond in a creative medium of their choosing.)

2.) Describe a quote, lyrics, or a piece of art that has had a major impact on you. (The submission is not required to be in writing, there is no minimum word requirement; the applicant is encouraged to respond in a creative medium of their choosing.)

3.) Describe how a creative outlet has helped you overcome adversity. (The submission is not required to be in writing, there is no minimum word requirement; the applicant is encouraged to respond in a creative medium of their choosing.)

**Responses to the prompts may be in whichever format the applicant feels demonstrates their abilities best, whether that be an essay, poetry, short story, drawing, painting, a short video, a song, a sculpture, a collage or even an interpretive dance. If your creative outlet is not listed here, by all means submit it! That means your creativity has already ousted ours and that is exactly what we're looking for.**
