One Southlake also has a robust Student Scholarship Program. The 2024-25 Scholarship was open to public, private and home-schooled students in 10th through 12th grade in several Texas counties, including Tarrant, Denton, Parker, Wise and Palo Pinto. To qualify, all the contestants had to complete a brief online class on the subject of Marxism, Socialism and Communism through the curriculums from Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation or Hillsdale College Online and then write an essay or create a video about the societal effects of a communist government, and how contemporary Marxist attitudes, such as controlled or compelled speech, left unchecked, could potentially erode the freedoms Americans enjoy today. Three students won scholarships totaling $4,500.
Our goal is to educate students on what it is like NOT to grow up in the United States through the stories of people who have immigrated here. We hope to create a deeper appreciation of America and its history through the eyes of people who did not grow up with the liberties and opportunities many of us take for granted.
In addition to financial assistance to cover our program costs and marketing, One Southlake is always open to new speakers and volunteers who align with our mission and organizations and schools interested in hosting our programs!

One Southlake's motto is based on "E pluribus unum," meaning "out of many one." Our speakers come from more than 30 different countries but are united in their gratitude for the equal opportunities and rights they have as Americans.
