Our firm sponsors the Annual Text Free Texas Scholarship Contest in order to promote safe teen driving. During Distracted Driving Awareness Month, students from four Texas high schools tell us on Google+ or Facebook why they the commit to not text and drive. At the end of April, we extend a scholarship to one student from each of the four schools.

In 2014, the scholarship contest was open to grades 10-12 at El Campo High School, Lee High School, Waltrip High School, and Eastwood Academy High School.
