SCHOLARSHIP
At this time, we have no scholarship opportunities available.
Since 2006, Carter Mario Law Firm has hosted the CarterCares Scholarship. Over the years, we have awarded over $160,000 in scholarship money.
In 2019, we were pleased to announce Anthony Kane as the recipient of our CarterCares Scholarship. Anthony was awarded a $2,000 check, a new laptop for school, and a summer internship at our firm.
We were thrilled to be able to recognize a community leader and advocate such as Anthony and to support him as he pursues his Bachelor’s degree and JD in the future. Congratulations Anthony!
2018 Scholarship Banquet
We’re not just dedicated to getting our clients the money they deserve; we also strive to better the lives of our youth. These five high school seniors embody the honor, dedication, and integrity necessary to become exceptional young leaders.
Carter Mario Law Firm thanks our exceptional CarterCares Scholarship winners and their families for a wonderful banquet to end the school year. CarterCares awarded five high school seniors a total of $10,000 in scholarships.
Students were selected based on their academic merits, extra-curricular activities, and volunteer work for charities such as Guilford High School’s Unity Club, American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, Fishing with Vets, New Haven Reads, and Special Olympics.
