After being diagnosed with cancer, not only are your finances affected but also your motivation, hope, and aspirations. My Hometown Heroes not only helped me go to college and start my post-cancer life but they also gave me the courage to chase my dreams with the comfort of knowing I'm not alone. Nothing will ever be able to surpass that feeling.
My Hometown Heroes provides life changing scholarships and resources to college bound cancer survivors from across the country. We are an organization that brings people together to celebrate success, which is measured by each life impacted by a college scholarship.
My Hometown Heroes is a national 501(c)3 organization designed to provide scholarships to young adult cancer survivors between the ages of 17 and 39. Our mission is to financially assist and recognize these amazing individuals who are pursuing a college education. Through community outreach, creativity, and collaboration we inspire with stories of hope and progress.
