The NF Midwest Scholarship Program is proud to celebrate another year of supporting students with neurofibromatosis as they work toward their educational dreams.
Each year, NF Midwest awards scholarships to students across our six-state region. These students are pursuing their goals while also navigating life with NF, and we are honored to play a small part in what comes next for them.
This year, we received a large number of applications, and the selection process was incredibly competitive. We were inspired by the determination, hard work, and hopes shared by so many students.
The 2026 scholarship recipients have big goals ahead of them, and we could not be more excited to cheer them on. Congratulations to each of them!
