The Gwendolyne Hawley Trust Scholarship Award Program
Donald J. Pickering Scholarship Opportunity for Students who are Blind or Visually Impaired
The Kansas Society for Children with Challenges
- Eligibility Guidelines:
- The needs of handicapped or disabled Kansas children under the age of 21 will be considered if a parent or guardian is unable to meet the costs involved for medical services or equipment or if no other source of financial assistance is available. Any health care insurance benefits available to the child’s family will be taken into consideration before the Society extends financial support.
- Application Procedures:
- Because every child’s needs are unique, the Society evaluates all applications on a case-by-case basis. Parents or guardians can make an initial inquiry by letter, phone, e-mail, fax or in person. All applications are carefully reviewed and the parent or guardian contacted if more information is needed in order for our staff to make a final determination of eligibility. There is no cost associated with applying for financial assistance and every effort is made to help as many families as possible.To apply for assistance, click here for our contact information.
