$300,000 Scholarship Program for Those With Crohn's Disease

Pretty nice.  The pharmaceutical company UCB has introduced a scholarship for folks living with Crohn's.  If you need financial help for your schooling check this out soon as the deadline is May 18, 2007.

UCB, Inc. announced today the national roll out of the 2007 Crohn's Scholarship Program, which will award 30, one-time scholarships of up to $10,000 to people diagnosed with Crohn's disease who demonstrate academic ambition and who are reaching beyond the boundaries of their condition. The program is an expansion of UCB's pilot scholarship program in 2006 that was rolled out on a smaller scale by gastroenterologists at nine leading medical institutions across the country. In 2006, $10,000 scholarships were awarded to 12 Crohn's patients.
