Vivek Ramaswamy: Launching New Scholarship Fund

In honor of our son's 1st birthday today, Apoorva & I are committing $250,000 to fund a new scholarship to foster national pride among young Americans. Only 16% of Gen Z says they're proud to be American. 60% of teens on TikTok would rather give up their right to vote than their social media account. Our military suffered a 25% recruitment deficit last year. This bodes poorly for our nation.

As an entrepreneur, I believe in solving problems through private behavior whenever possible. That's why we are funding a new scholarship to revive patriotism: this year, ten high school students will be eligible to receive a $25,000 scholarship for concisely articulating what it means to be an American in 2023. The scholarship will be administered by Incubate Debate, a nonprofit organization that leads U.S. students to debate important issues of public importance.

Students will submit a 2-minute video answering the question: what does it mean to be an American? Submissions will be evaluated based on their thoughtfulness, insight, and ability to stimulate discussion about the topic. Ten winners will be selected by a panel to receive a $25,000 scholarship for post-secondary education, entrepreneurial endeavors, or their commitment to serve in the military or law enforcement role.

Actions speak louder than words & I believe in putting our money where our mouth is.
