2025 Right Mindset Scholarship

Each day is filled with decisions, big and small, many of which are subtly steered by our inner thoughts. Navigating through these choices with a healthy mindset and clear focus is essential for making informed and positive decisions. To explore this further, the offices of Veliz & Associates, P.A. are proud to announce the Right Mindset Scholarship, which encourages individuals to reflect on how cultivating the right mindset can help individuals create a supportive environment that enhances mental clarity and well-being.

Our scholarship aims to reward students who demonstrate resilience and the ability to stay focused despite the challenges they face. We believe that by sharing your personal experiences and strategies for overcoming obstacles, you can inspire others and contribute to a community of mindful and motivated individuals.
