| The Missouri Gaming Association, the statewide professional association of the Missouri casino industry, is asking high school students to compete for $7,000 in scholarships through its 18th annual Project 21 Scholarship program. Students may enter by educating their peers on the issues of underage gambling through written essays, posters or videos.
Entries must be published or displayed at the student’s high school for at least one full week before February 15. Scholarship entries must be submitted to the Missouri Gaming Assocation by March 1. The Project 21 scholarship competition is open to all Missouri high school seniors planning to attend an institution of higher education in the United States within four years of graduating from high school. The Missouri Gaming Association will award two $1,500 scholarships and four $1,000 scholarships. A copy of the contest application and guidelines is available at www.missouricasinos.org.
