SolvayCARES Scholarship AwardIn the United States, Solvay Pharmaceuticals has been helping people with cystic fibrosis (CF) manage their health for more than 20 years. Our SolvayCARES program expands this tradition, offering comprehensive support to CF families through nutritional, educational, and financial resources. Postulants must be diagnosed with CF by a physician and be enrolled in or awaiting acceptance from an accredited institution (eg, college, university, trade, or vocational school) for an educational program during the next academic year (winners will be required to provide proof of enrollment). From all eligible applications received, 40 winners will be chosen to receive a 1-year $2500 scholarship for use during the next academic year and one person will receive a $18,000 scholarship! Deadline: May 15, 2010 Cystic Fibrosis Scholarship FoundationThe mission of the Cystic Fibrosis Scholarship Foundation (CFSF) is to provide an opportunity for young adults with CF to further their education at a college or vocational school. This possibility is often out of reach for families with CF children because of the high cost of medical care from the time these students were babies. However we at CFSF believe in the future of these young adults, their ability to achieve personal and educational goals, and their importance in making a long-term contribution to society on all levels. Scholarships are awarded based on educational achievement, leadership, and financial need as submitted by the student in the scholarship application form.
