Resource Stats
The National Collegiate Cancer Foundation provides need-based scholarships to young adult cancer survivors pursuing higher education during treatment and beyond. They focus specifically on helping adolescents and young adults (AYAs) who are one of the most underserved cancer populations, with 89,000 AYAs diagnosed with cancer each year in the U.S.
The foundation offers both Legacy and Survivor Scholarship Programs to help cover educational expenses for college students managing cancer treatment or recovery. They also connect families with additional resources and support organizations that assist young adults impacted by cancer. Their mission is to help survivors and their families develop a "Will Win" attitude throughout their cancer journey while pursuing their educational goals.
