The financial costs a family may inherit as a result of caring for a mother with stage 4 cancer, and then closing the chapters of her life, may impact her daughter's ability to pursue post-secondary opportunities. To off-set a small amount of the financial burden, Harriett’s Daughters will award educational scholarships to those young women -- who plan to go to college in the 2022-2023 academic school year.

​

To be eligible for a Harriett's Daughters Scholarship, applicants must:

​

• Be a U.S. citizen

• Reside in the Greater Atlanta area

• Be a young woman in her senior of high school 

• Have a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 on a 4.00 scale

• Have a mother who has stage 4 cancer, or a mother who has died from cancer

​

In addition to the general eligibility requirements, applicants will be asked to provide the following:

​

• Two letters of recommendation (both letters must be written on official letterhead and signed) 

• An essay/personal statement 

• A one-minute video introduction 

• Official academic transcript
