Scarborough student receives scholarship for families impacted by cancer
Kristen Caldwell of Scarborough has been selected as a recipient of Northwestern Mutual’s Childhood Cancer Sibling Scholarship.
She is among 42 other students nationwide to be recognized for the impact childhood cancer had on them as either a survivor or sibling. Each has received a $5,000 renewable scholarship to help with financial support to attend college.
Caldwell was impacted by her sister’s diagnosis of stage four ovarian cancer in 2016. During that time, Caldwell became interested in politics, ultimately combining her passion for political science and her commitment to finding a cure for cancer. Now a political science major at George Washington University, Caldwell is determined to change laws to make health care and cancer treatments more affordable for those impacted by cancer.
