This scholarship was established to provide financial support to college students whose lives have been impacted by cancer and are seeking to continue their higher education while still undergoing treatment. The $1,000 competitive awards will be judged based on four criteria: financial need, quality of essay and recommendations, displaying a "Will Win" attitude, and overall story of cancer survivorship. All scholarships are one time awards and nonrenewable.
