University of Virginia Student is a Winner of the 2014 Frame My Future Scholarship Contest

Church Hill Classics, a leading manufacturer and online retailer in the college diploma frame industry, announced today that Kirsten Stiller from Manassas, Virginia is one of five Winners of the 2014 Frame My Future Scholarship Contest.

Kirsten’s winning entry was a self photo in an army uniform standing behind the American flag. Her parents are U.S. Army soldiers, and patriotism has a strong presence in her household and life. Kirsten says, “I realized the full extent to which my parents devoted their lives to this country. I decided that I want to serve this nation in the same way they do.”

A $1,000 scholarship will be awarded to Kirsten as well as to the other four scholarship Winners for the 2014-2015 academic year. Kirsten plans to attend the University of Virginia as a sophomore in Charlottesville, Virginia.

The Frame My Future Scholarship Contest 2014, a nationwide contest, asked students to submit an original creation expressing what they hope to achieve in their personal and professional lives after college. The entry needed to communicate: This is how I Frame My Future.
