My mother always taught me to speak for those that have no voice, and to defend those that are weaker. She was a social worker, and I remember her leaving the house at all odd hours of the night to attend to some disturbance at the homes of her clients. She set an expectation and a precedent for me, encouraging me to also dedicate my career to helping others. I was determined to become a social worker like her, improving my community through care. This scholarship will enable me to continue my training and education in the field, and it is for this reason that I am submitting my statement of purpose scholarship sample. Throughout college, I volunteered as a counselor for a shelter in my community in order to put the concepts I learned in school into practice. I was extremely touched by my experiences working in the shelter, where I was faced with clients presenting symptoms ranging from despair to schizophrenia. In my capacity as a counselor, I helped to calm these clients down and get as much information as possible so that the shelter could help with their individual cases. My goal is to continue to do such community outreach and intervention work, getting help to those that need it the most. This scholarship would allow me to continue my education in social work, an opportunity that I otherwise would not have. The ability to take my knowledge to the next level is very important to me, as I hope to use the knowledge gained from my degree to become a licensed social worker that deals with cases involving mental illness. This scholarship will enable me to receive the additional specialized training I will need to complete my licensure. As a driven individual with a passion for helping others, I know that my continued training in the field of social work will allow me to make a difference in the community by helping those who are often left behind.
