July 16, 2007— MedPro Rx, Inc., provider of specialty pharmacy services to patients with chronic illnesses, recently awarded 44 scholarships to students living with bleeding disorders in more than 26 states. The number of awards disbursed through the 2007 “Education is Power” scholarship program more than doubled the number of awards disbursed in 2006, which was the inaugural year of the program.
MedPro Rx’s scholarship program is built on the premise that education is power, and power enables students to achieve goals that help foster their success. The program is open to individuals living with Hemophilia and von Willebrand Disease, both bleeding disorders. Applicants must also be United States residents, entering or attending a community college, junior college, four-year college, university or vocational school, and must participate in community activities and/or volunteer work.
“We are extremely pleased by the overwhelming response and participation in this year’s scholarship program. More than doubling the number of awards in 2007 shows us that this program is needed, valued and important to the bleeding disorders community,” said Kathy Robinette-Stoneberg, Scholarship Coordinator.
A minimum of 20 scholarships are awarded each year and range in value from $500 to $2,500. To be considered for the 2008 “Education is Power” scholarship program, students must apply by May 1, 2008.
