The Law Office of Kenneth Berger is offering a yearly $1,000 scholarship to a student who is either preparing for their first year of college or is currently enrolled full time at a college or university.
Our firm serves catastrophically injured people throughout South Carolina. All too often, we see the horrible effects of texting and driving on our state’s roadways. With this scholarship offering, we not only want to help students overcome the financial challenges of pursuing higher education, but also highlight the dangers of distracted driving with the hope of eliminating it altogether.

- Must be able to provide a school transcript or acceptance letter proving your enrollment
