Scholarship Program

The Bogart HOPE Scholarship was instituted 15 years ago to help survivors of childhood cancer obtain advanced education, including college, vocational training and continuing education courses.

The scholarships are intended to help cover the cost of tuition, books, fees and supplies. The Bogart HOPE Scholarship Program is funded by a generous grant from the Bogart Pediatric Cancer Research Program, Fred Kunik & Susan Greenberg Kunik and Western Union. Multiple scholarships are awarded each year.
