Scholarships
Childhood cancer often leaves many families in debt, and the survivor with learning challenges that may make it difficult to get into college or other post-secondary educational institutions.
To help ease that burden, Special Love provides educational scholarships to young cancer survivors who have participated in Special Love’s programs for books, housing and/or tuition through our Kay/Moore Scholarship Fund, and our Guardian Scholarships.
To date, we provided more than 650 scholarships to Special Love campers!
The Kay/Moore Scholarship Fund* was established in 1989 to provide scholarships to both current and past campers. Scholarships are awarded to eligible applicants who complete and return the application by the deadline.
Guardian Scholarships* A Guardian award is funded by an individual donor and awarded to eligible applicants who complete and return the application by the deadline. Awards can be named for the donor, company or in memory of a loved one.
Scholarships are awarded to eligible applicants who complete and return the application by the deadline.
*For Special Love program participants only
