This scholarship was created for those everyday Rock Stars, and will be awarded to a student that has gone above and beyond to assist their family during a time when a family member has suffered a medical crisis. Giving up the care free life of youth to become a care giver is an amazing and heartfelt gift of unconditional love. Rock Star applicants must be nominated by a family member, mentor or close friend. What a Girl Wants believes that the process of healing involves family & friends coming together to create a support system. Young people often become key members of that support system, sometimes having to face very grownup realities and decisions. When they do, these young people become a solid “Rock” in their families. And so, we call them our Rock Star.
The scholarship will be awarded in the amount of $1,000.00. Nomination form can be accessed below. Nominations are due by March 18th, and can be mailed to: The Life is A Journey – Don’t Stop Believing Scholarship Fund c/o of The Troy Foundation, 216 West Franklin Street, Troy, Ohio 45373 or emailed to Hannah Severt, hsevert@thetroyfoundation.org please call 937-339-8935 if you have any questions.
