What are we all about?

This scholarship is a way to help young adult survivors continue their education or complete a project or creation that they have had to put off or struggled with since their diagnosis. Cancer will change our lives but it can never take away our passion. Since I was diagnosed, I put off many projects and many passions I wanted to complete, but lacked the money or the time to complete them. However in the past two years I have taken control of my art and focused it to complete many projects, including the forming of this scholarship. Together with the board of directors for the Ending Cancer in Our Generation, we will make sure that at least one artist will be able to do something that they love. We can guarantee that cancer does not take everything away or change everything for at least one survivor. Art can make a huge difference in the world and our community is dedicated to making sure that survivors and anyone affected by cancer have a place to connect, network and grow as artists. As our community grows we will be able to offer more scholarships and we will be able to help create more projects, pay more tuition and help more survivors feel a bit of normalcy in their wild cancer world.
