The Provident team thought long and hard about ways to continue helping people invest in themselves and their future. It’s not just about selling top quality bullion products; it’s also about giving back to the next generation. The result of this brainstorm? We’ve decided to establish a biannual collegiate scholarship program.
You’re told at a young age that going to college will help prepare you for what’s to come. At Provident, we agree that this is a critical time for every young adult. After all, tomorrow’s workforce—doctors, scientists, architects—depends on access to higher education today.
By helping young adults achieve their goals, we can instill in them the value of investing in their future. The rise in college tuition is making it more and more difficult—even impossible—for students to earn a college diploma. Preparing for these financial roadblocks and working to overcome them paves the way for young adults to learn about fiscal responsibility and investing.
Are you or is someone you know planning to attend college in the fall? We invite you to participate in our first ever scholarship essay contest. Entrants have until September 8, 2017 to write an original 500 to 750 word essay that answers the question: “If you had $10,000 to invest, would you buy gold or bitcoin? Why?” The winner will receive $1,000 to go towards their college education!
Please visit our scholarship page for full entry details and be sure to check out our eligibility requirements.
At Provident, we envision a bright future. Our scholarship program is a step towards helping that vision become a reality!
