About the Christ Saves Hearts Foundation Scholarship
In an effort to provide support and encouragement to our youth impacted by heart disease in the Triangle area, we are pleased to offer annual scholarships to minority students. We understand that there is a great need in our community, and we believe that education can be a powerful tool for promoting awareness and change.
We are committed to engaging with business, health, church, and community leaders from across the Triangle area of North Carolina who share our vision of creating a healthier community. Through our efforts, we hope to inspire and empower individuals to take an active role in promoting heart health and combating heart disease.
The Christ Saves Hearts Scholarship Program, established in 2016, provides college scholarships to graduating high school seniors and college freshmen in the NC Triangle area who have been directly impacted by heart disease. We are proud to support these deserving students as they pursue their educational goals and work towards a brighter future.
