27 Students Supported since 2018
Our RARE Scholars program provides financial support to U.S. college students living with, or caring for someone living with, one of several rare genetic conditions – achondroplasia, Batten disease, mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) or phenylketonuria (PKU). Since its inception in 2018, the program has awarded nearly $200,000 to 27 students who have demonstrated exceptional leadership and engagement in school and community activities.
The application period for the 2026-27 academic year is closed. We will begin accepting applications for the 2027-28 academic year in February 2027.
A key pillar of our approach to corporate giving is providing funding to patient advocacy groups that support the communities we serve. We focus on donating to groups and programs that empower patients and help increase disease awareness.
