Children’s Cancer Cause College Scholars Program
Children’s Cancer Cause awarded a record number of academic scholarships to childhood cancer survivors in 2025. Thanks to a generous survivorship program grant from Hyundai Hope On Wheels, twenty-two survivors were welcomed into the 2025 Children’s Cancer Cause College Scholars Program, representing both organizations’ strong investment in survivors and belief in their bright futures.

The College Scholars Program - which has now awarded scholarship to nearly 70 survivors - includes a cancer volunteer project of the student’s choice. Scholars receive support and mentorship from the Children’s Cancer Cause. Past scholarship winners have undertaken projects that include a community bone marrow drive, a podcast for other cancer survivors, and the formation of a campus cancer advocacy organization.

Our thanks to...
In 2025, we awarded a record number of scholarships to childhood cancer survivors - more than double any previous year! - thanks to a survivorship program grant from Hyundai Hope on Wheels, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization supported by Hyundai Motor America and its more than 835 U.S. dealers.
The top scholarship award recipient is our Stewart Scholar. This annual award is presented to a survivor who demonstrates exceptional potential to make a positive difference in the world. It is named in honor of John and Nancy Stewart, founders of our Stewart Initiative for Childhood Cancer Survivors.
