About the Program
For more than 20 years, we have been awarding Childhood Cancer Survivor Scholarships to Canadian students. In the past 5 years we have awarded more than 300 such scholarships, celebrating with each winner their second chance at life. Many of these scholarships have been "adopted" by our supporters, giving our donors a direct link to these young people who survived a cancer journey. This year, we are excited to announce a new and improved Childhood Cancer Survivor Scholarship Awards program, due to the commitment of our corporate partner Teva Canada Limited.
We now offer TWO types of Scholarships for Childhood Cancer Survivors:
$1,500 (one time award) for up to 75 students entering any university, college or vocational training program.
$5,000 Teva Canada Scholarship (one time award) for up to 10 students in pharmacy, medicine or health sciences.
Many childhood cancer survivors are inspired to enter the field of health sciences: pharmacy, medicine or health care because of their experiences. Teva Canada is proud to support their studies, knowing that, due to their life experiences, they will make extraordinary pharmacists, nurses, doctors and researchers.
We are proud to have awarded 63 scholarships in 2009! Click here to check out who they are.
