College Scholarship Application Information and Guidelines

The MAGIC Foundation is a national non-profit organization that is proud to offer two scholarships, per year, to qualified students with a documented endocrine disorder.  It is our sincere hope that this will help further education of children with endocrine disorders. The scholarships will be in the amount of $500, per student, for the school year, pending available funds.
