(EMAILWIRE.COM, January 12, 2012 ) San Jose, Costa Rica, January 10, 2012 – National Payday, a premier online payday lender, recently introduced its first annual scholarship competition.

The National Payday Scholarship Fund is a competition open to any incoming or currently enrolled student in a United States educational institution. The company asks contestants to submit a 600-word essay on how short-term financing can benefit a person’s life. Contestants are encouraged to speak from personal experience, though it is not required.

Because National Payday is one of the oldest payday lenders on the Internet, the company knows the importance of financial responsibility. Overall, the National Payday Scholarship Fund will help promote not only educational development, but will help the company continue to build its brand and company name among students. The essays collected will be published on the company’s website at, http://www.nationalpayday.com/scholarship/index.html.

“We absolutely know the importance of fiscal responsibility and that begins with education,” explains M. Lee, National Payday Director of Operations. “The National Payday Scholarship Fund will act as an exciting and unique way for students to share their stories, learn more about financial responsibility, and possibly win the $3,000 to put toward their own higher education.”

The scholarship contest will be open for entry between December 1, 2011 and July 31, 2012. National Payday has taken a unique approach to selecting the winner; entrants’ peers will judge each essay. The essay with the most Facebook “Likes,” Google “+1s,” and Tweets combined will receive the $3,000.

National Payday plans to announce the scholarship winner on August 15, 2012 and disburse the funds by August 30th. The company hopes to repeat this contest every year.
