Kelli Abell McLaughlin
GBM College Legacy Scholarship
-
A college scholarship for those whose family has been affected by GBM brain cancer:
The diagnosis of Glioblastoma within a family can be very difficult to navigate, especially for children. Our goal at Kelli's Kegs N Eggs 5k is to encourage children to continue to pursue their dreams despite the struggles that a Glioblastoma diagnosis can have on a family. Kelli McLaughlin, an entrepreneur herself, pursued her dreams of owning a women's and children's boutique focused on giving back to the local community. Her dream after diagnosis was to help others achieve their goals and dreams through education. This college scholarship is a way for Kelli's Kegs N Eggs 5k to help lessen the financial burden of higher education. Please fill out the form below to apply for the Kelli Abell McLaughlin GBM College Legacy Scholarship. There are two $2,500 scholarships available each calendar year.
