The HIE Help Center is pleased to offer two annual scholarships for students who are committed to helping people with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), cerebral palsy (CP), and other disabilities.
Being personally impacted by HIE or another disability is not a requirement, as the scholarships focus on the applicant’s goals to support those who are affected. However, students with disabilities are certainly welcome and encouraged to apply.
