Welcome to Cancer for College, a beacon of hope and support for cancer survivors pursuing their dreams of higher education since 1993. In a world where over 15,000 children face a cancer diagnosis each year, and where 1 in 5 of them are already grappling with the challenges of poverty, our mission becomes more critical than ever. Bright Futures is our campaign to achieve our goals for scholarship, educational experiences and medical debt relief for cancer survivors now and into the future!
We understand the staggering financial burdens that accompany a cancer diagnosis – from the exorbitant medical costs to the indirect expenses for travel, meals, accommodation, and childcare during treatment.
We stand as a pillar of support for cancer survivors nationwide. To date, our organization has provided high achieving cancer survivors with:
- More than 1,700 scholarships totaling $7 million
- Medical debt relief
- Life-changing experiences
- Educational workshops
- Mentorship groups
- Networking opportunities
It is our mission to empower these cancer survivors on their journeys to recovery and success.
