In recognition of Sofia and her sister, Gabriela's love of learning as well as their achievements in academic excellence in school, Sofia's Hope is proud to offer the following annual college scholarship opportunities for both childhood cancer survivors and their siblings. 

Sofia did not have the chance to graduate high school or attend college so through these college scholarships Sofia's Hope aspires to help make that dream a reality for other childhood cancer patients/survivors/warriors and their siblings.  The 2023-2024 application cycle is closed  and we will be announcing this year's recipients on April 15, 2023.  Next year's cycle opens on January 1, 2024.accepting applications until March 15, 2023,
