2021-2022 Scholarship Application & Instructions
One Little Person Scholarship Application 2021
The One Little Person Scholarship Award was created in 2019 due to the burning
passion of one little person, Miss Tobie Mitchell. Tobie Mitchell is an Oklahoma City native
who knows all too well how significant one little person can be. Whether that significant
person was a teacher, a friend, or even an absentee parent, one person can change the
world (or someone’s world). Using this scholarship, Tobie wants to change someone’s
world. Not only does Ms. Mitchell understand the importance of education, but she also
understands the importance of someone believing in you when it is hard for you to believe
in yourself.
