2011 George E. Allen Scholarship Winners
“We are all inspired by the drive and determination demonstrated by these young adults in the face of great challenges,” said Doug Barry, Allen Law Firm president. “These students have overcome more in their short tenure than many do in a lifetime. We are honored and humbled to help these amazing students to accomplish their dreams.”
Celebrating 20 years of helping students achieve their continuing education dreams, the George E. Allen Scholarship was created to honor the firm’s founder, George E. Allen, Sr., who overcame significant hardship to put himself through college and law school. He went on to become one of the Commonwealth’s top trial attorneys and established one of the premier personal injury law firms in the state.
