Scholarship program 

Thank you for your interest in the Student Leader Scholarship Program. The 2022 program has come to end. If you received enough credits to earn a scholarship, you will be notified by email. If you have any questions, you can review the program guidelines below or email makeanimpact@vitalant.org. You can also reach out to your Vitalant Account Manager.

Student Leader Scholarship Program Guidelines:

• The scholarship program period is March 1 – May 31, 2022.
• All donations must be made by end of day May 31, 2022, to be counted toward the scholarship goal.
• To qualify for the scholarship, all student virtual blood drive coordinators are required to preregister their blood drive with a Vitalant account manager, regardless of the blood drive’s location or format. Students will be provided a custom virtual blood drive link to recruit blood donors and record their scholarship blood donations. 
• To count toward the scholarship, blood donations must be made using the student’s unique virtual blood drive link. 
• Completed blood donations must be made to count toward the scholarship goal. Deferrals and unsuccessful donations will not count toward the scholarship goal. 
• Donations must be completed in compliance with the virtual blood drive process to count toward the scholarship goal. Completed blood donations that are not tracked by the student’s scholarship link will not count toward the scholarship goal. 
• Vitalant account managers will provide virtual blood drive status updates and notify students when they have successfully achieved their scholarship goal. 
• When the program period ends, scholarship recipients will receive an email with a Vitalant provided scholarship information form required for fund distribution to the student’s school. 
• Scholarships must be claimed within 12 months of initial email notification. 
• Scholarships will be dispersed to the designated college, university or trade school the student designates, in the student’s name. 
• No scholarships will be awarded directly to an individual student. 
• Scholarships are not transferrable. 
• Students must meet the following eligibility requirements to participate: 
  • Be enrolled, plan to enroll or be accepted for the following academic year for post-high school learning at a college, university, community college, trade school or other post-high school educational facility within the United States. 
  • For high school participants, student leaders must be a graduating senior who is planning to continue their education. 
• This one-time scholarship program is not associated with other Vitalant scholarship programs or promotions. 
• All scholarship credits are subject to review and verification prior to awarding the scholarship.
