Who Can Apply:
- Pursuing higher education is a significant challenge on its own—but for caregivers, it comes with a unique set of added responsibilities.
- Beyond managing coursework, extracurriculars, and often a job, student caregivers also dedicate their time and energy to caring for others. Whether you’re supporting children, aging family members, loved ones with disabilities, or a partner facing health challenges, your commitment doesn’t go unnoticed.
- At Cariloop, we understand how demanding this journey can be, and we want to help. The Cariloop Caregiver Scholarship is designed to support and empower student caregivers as they pursue their academic and personal goals.
- If you’re currently a student who has served—or continues to serve—as a primary caregiver within your family or community, we encourage you to apply. This scholarship is our way of honoring your resilience, compassion, and dedication to others while you work toward a brighter future for yourself.
- To apply, share your Caregiving story with us!
- Your response should be submitted as a video and should address the following: what caregiving has looked like for you, how it has shaped you, and why this scholarship support matters. Please be sure to fully answer all parts of the prompt. Videos should not exceed 2 minutes in length.
