Summary:
At Cancer Horizons, we strive to empower cancer patients, and an extension of our work is providing financial aid to students that have been affected by cancer in their lives. Our $1,000 scholarship is for a U.S student who has been affected by cancer and has a vision of making a difference in supporting cancer patients, their families, and communities. We believe that extending a reward to someone affected by cancer that is working towards achieving an education is a natural step to support the fight against cancer.
Peace. My name is Chris Yakawich, and I have served as a Campus Minister here at Carroll for a few years now. After a radical encounter with God's love at a retreat that I served at in college, I have pursued the Lord with abandon. Jesus is madly in love with us, and it is a gift to share this reality with the students at Carroll.
Before working here at Carroll, I taught at a Catholic High School in Washington, and then went to grad school and studied Theology at the Augustine Institute in Denver, Colorado.
