Witherite Law Group awards $150k in scholarships to Dunbar High Class of 2024

Fort Worth – Witherite Law Group and 1-800-TruckWreck are committed to giving back to the community of Fort Worth and presented their 2024 “Making a Difference” Scholarship recipients with $2,500 scholarships.

This year, 60 graduating seniors, up from 44 in 2023, will each be awarded a $2,500 scholarship, totalling $150,000 in scholarship funds awarded by Witherite Law Group. Additionally, if students maintain a 2.0 GPA and take at least 12 credit hours, their “Making a Difference” scholarships are renewable annually.

Created in 2016 by Amy Witherite, founder of Witherite Law Group and 1-800-TruckWreck, the “Making a Difference” Scholarship provides financial assistance to students who have demonstrated leadership in their schools and communities. The partnership with Dunbar High School began in 2014 and Witherite Law Group and 1-800-TruckWreck have awarded 109 scholarships and renewed 254 scholarships total — an investment of approximately $850,000 across all schools supported by the firm.

“The rising cost of higher education is forcing some students to go straight to work and delay or forgo college altogether,” said Witherite. “We have steadily increased our scholarship awards due to local need and economic pressures. Having financial resources to help with school gives students an opportunity to focus on academics, bettering their chance of completion and securing a fulfilling career.”
