A Law of Life is a short, meaningful saying or quotation that points to a core personal value or ideal. On a person’s journey through life, a Law of Life serves as a memorable moral guidepost. While providing high schools with an effective, cost-free character education program, the Georgia Rotary Clubs Laws of Life Essay Contest changes students’ lives for the better. As students reflect on the values and principles that matter most to them, students see themselves and others with a new perspective. Frequently, the contest nudges students not just to articulate their ideals, but to live out their “best versions” of themselves – lives full of courage, compassion, and gratitude. Each year, more than 40,000 Georgia students write a Laws of Life essay, and the contest presents $20,000 in cash awards to students and teachers. Your support will allow even more students to participate in this ethics education program.
