2023 CRG Scholarship Award

Hey High School Seniors, it’s that time of year again! Will you rise to the challenge presented by the Christensen Realty Group’s Annual Scholarship Award?

The Christensen Realty Group is committed to creating value for both our clients and our community. From sponsoring local sports teams, local schools and community events, we feel privileged to give back in ways that make our community distinctively stronger. To that end, we are excited to announce the 2023 Christensen Realty Group CHALLENGE, we believe will benefit every student who applies, and SCHOLARSHIP that will honor one graduating Park Village senior with a $2,023 scholarship award that recognizes their achievements and supports their dreams of higher education.

All graduating students who apply will be given a hardcover copy of the book, The Go-Giver. We know you have a lot going on, however, this is a short, easy and inspiring read.

The Challenge:  This book tells the story of the 5 Laws of  “Stratospheric Success” by introducing Characters that exemplify one of the five laws. As you read through this parable style book we’d like you to think about which character you identify with and/or would most aspire to be like. We’d then like you to write a 300 – 500 word essay answering the following questions:

1. Which character/law do you most identify with and/or aspire to be like? Why?
2. Who in your life (parent, teacher, friend, coach, etc.) models this law?
3. How might you emulate the positive attributes of that character in your life?

The Scholarship:  One student will be awarded a check in the amount of $2,023 toward their pursuit of more education whether it be a 4 year university, a 2 year college, trade or tech school.

Our scholarship award committee is looking forward to reading all essays and will be judging based on:

1. Ability to articulate why you identify with the law you choose to write about and how applying that law to your own life will encourage your personal success.
2. The use of examples from your own life and others.

This book has greatly influenced all of us at the Christensen Realty Group … it’s mandatory reading once a year for our team.  While only one student will receive the cash scholarship, we believe everyone who reads this book will benefit.
