Are you currently enrolled in high school, vocational school or college? If yes, you are eligible to apply.

Need some cash for school? MoreWithUs - Everyday Jobs is providing two $500 (five hundred dollar) Scholarships which you can use toward books, tuition, or anything else related to school expenses.

Submit a one-page essay OR a short video (about 2 minutes) about a work or volunteer experience. Either option is fine!

Create a free MoreWithUs profile. You can also create a profile on the MoreWithUs - Everyday Jobs app, which can be downloaded for free on Apple iOS and Google Play Android.

In one standard double-spaced page, write about an Everyday Job or volunteer position you’ve had—maybe as a camp counselor, a tutor, a pizza deliverer, you name it. Tell us about the skills or lessons you learned that you hope to bring into your future ambitions or career dreams. Feel free to be creative and genuine—we want to hear about YOU.

We’d like you to put your creativity and ingenuity to the test by making a short video detailing your most positive or negative experiences with a previously held job, internship, volunteer program, etc. Feel free to let us know what your thoughts are on the concept of working, as well. Don’t worry about the kind of position; whether you engaged in paid work, contributed to a volunteer program, interned or held a vocational position, we’d love to hear about your experiences.

Upload your video submission through TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, or Facebook and share it with us via direct message OR email us a link to your video to: team@morewithus.com
