MastoKids.org Educational Scholarship
Children with mastocytosis and other mast cell diseases are often restricted from educational dreams by their disease.
Additionally, financial restrictions often play into these difficulties as the funds necessary for a college degree can be difficult to come up with in light of medical and care costs. No student should have to lose out on their ambitions due to their background or health conditions.
This scholarship seeks to support students who have been affected by mast cell diseases so they can overcome the difficulties they face and achieve their dreams.
Any high school, undergraduate, or graduate student who has been affected by mast cell disease either personally or through an immediate family member may apply for this scholarship opportunity.
To apply, tell us how mast cell disease has affected you, your family and your plans for the future.
Mast cell diseases can affect each person in a dramatically different way. Most of the time, we are discussing that statement in a medical sense. However, we don't often hear much detail about how it affects each person on a more personal level. Could you tell us how mast cell disease has affected you, your family, and your plans for the future?
