Oncology Yoga Certificate Program Scholarships
Apply by October 10th
In 2024, we are able to offer 5 scholarships each for $900 to participate in the 75 Hour Certificate Program. These funds have been provided by private donations and fundraising campaigns. We are always looking for support. Donate here.
Our scholarships are highly competitive. On average, we are only able to provide scholarships to less than 10% of all applicants. We wish we could do more and we fundraise year-round to support as many individuals as we can.
We also recognize that these partial scholarships leave a balance of up to $599 for the recipient and that can create a barrier to participation. We encourage all participants to investigate other ways to fund the program or remaining tuition costs. It is possible. It just takes work and commitment. Many past graduates have successfully raised funds directly through employers, local non-profits, friends and family. Please review self fundraising options here.

Donations required!
We rely on the financial support of foundations and grants to offset the costs of the program and to provide these scholarships. Without this generous support, we would not be able to operate and provide this invaluable Oncology Yoga training. We ask for our community to contribute as much as possible. Please consider donating or supporting via a crowd-fundraising campaign.
