Amazing Grace Scholarship
Children of addiction start out in life at a disadvantage when compared to their peers, often facing trauma and turmoil at a young age.
Without family guidance or mentorship, it is easy for children and teens to feel lost or turn to dangerous habits. It is possible for these young people to break the cycle and become strong, healthy adults who do not fall into the same addictions as their parents, but doing so requires support and encouragement.
This scholarship aims to support students from families that struggle with addiction so they can overcome their circumstances and break the cycle.
Any undergraduate student who is the child of parents with addictions may apply for this scholarship opportunity.
To apply, tell us how addiction has played a role in your life and impacted you, as well as how you are working to break the cycle and live a clean life.
How has addiction affected and shaped your life? What are you doing and what will you continue to do to break the cycle of addiction and live a clean and sober life?
