Here are a few examples of good topics:

- A belief you hold strongly and why

- Your identity. This can be related to race, ethnicity, gender, religion, culture, interests, or anything else

- A life story that taught you an important lesson

- One of your passions

You should definitely tailor each scholarship essay based on the values of the scholarship granting organization. These groups often award scholarships based on how well applicants articulate support for their mission. Hope this helps!
