    Hi Everyone

    I found this website and I thought there may be some of our families that may benefit from these scholarships. I have provided some of the article and the link.  Hope some can benefit from it.

    FinAid LogoThe SmartStudent Guide to Financial Aid

    This page contains information about scholarships for cancer patients, cancer survivors, children of a cancer patient or survivor, students who lost a parent to cancer, and students pursuing careers in cancer treatment.

    http://www.finaid.org/scholarships/cancer.phtml

    I read down through all the different scholarships and some of them look easy to qualify for.  They offer anywhere from $1,000-$10,000.

    There are several I am going to research further for my daughter.

    GREAT site...and idea.  I will forward this to my niece...6 year survivor ( Age 10 at diagnosis...bone cancer )

    She has already found her "path" through that difficult journey!

    Your welcome,

    When I came across that site I thought of all the families that are financially strapped because of this beast,  even if its not a lot of money every little bit helps.

    A new chatter came in and gave us some information on places that offer scholarships for children whose parent has passed away due to breast cancer....

    maryellenlocherfoundation.org
    pinkrosefoundation.org

    hope these may be of help to some of you.....
