Jason and Melissa Kulpa announce that The Kulpa Foundation has
launched the Kulpa Health Innovations Scholarship to support
students committed to improving healthcare access and
affordability.
The Kulpa Foundation, co-founded by Melissa and Jason Kulpa, is
excited to announce the launch of its new scholarship program. The
Kulpa Health Innovations Scholarship supports students who are
committed to improving healthcare access and affordability. This
initiative underscores The Kulpa Foundation's dedication to
nurturing the next generation of leaders and innovators in the
healthcare sector.
The Kulpa Health Innovations Scholarship aims to provide
financial assistance to students who are actively engaged in
innovative projects that have the potential to revolutionize the
healthcare industry. By supporting these students, The Kulpa
Foundation hopes to encourage groundbreaking solutions that can
make healthcare more accessible and affordable for all.
"My father's battle with cancer exposed the inefficiencies in
our healthcare system and inspired me to establish the Kulpa Health
Innovations Scholarship,” explains Jason Kulpa, co-founder of The
Kulpa Foundation. “By supporting students dedicated to improving
healthcare access and affordability, I aim to honor my father's
memory and address the systemic issues families face during medical
crises."
Jason and Melissa have substantially bolstered The Kulpa
Foundation's financial strength by partnering with The Boston
Foundation, a donor-advised fund. This strategic collaboration
offers them various philanthropic opportunities and enables them to
launch focused initiatives to ease families' financial burdens,
aligning seamlessly with the Kulpas' core mission.
The scholarship program will award one scholarship in 2024.
These funds will help cover tuition fees, project materials, and
other educational expenses. By alleviating some financial burdens,
The Kulpa Foundation enables students to focus more on their
studies and innovative projects.
Students must meet specific criteria to be eligible for the
Kulpa Health Innovations Scholarship. They should be enrolled in an
accredited educational institution and pursue a degree or
certificate related to healthcare innovation. Additionally, they
must be actively involved in projects to improve healthcare access
and affordability.
