Colgate-Palmolive Scholars Program

1,000 Dreams Fund is thrilled to launch its Colgate-Palmolive Scholars Program, part of our multi-year partnership with Colgate-Palmolive Company. The Colgate-Palmolive Scholars Program aims to provide financial support and mentorship to students who are pursuing careers in the growing healthcare industry. The program is intended to help support the development of a talent pool for the healthcare industry, while providing for a clear pathway for individuals who want to thrive in the industry.

Our scholarship covers those extra cost outside of tuition, and can include assistance for needs including, but not exclusive to:

educational conferences
instructional programs related to STEM or research projects
exam application fees or accreditation coursework

Needs that are ongoing (e.g., utility bills, food costs) or related to medical care are NOT covered by this fund. This scholarship is not to fund tuition. The intention is to provide access to educational opportunities beyond tuition.
