AbbVie Rheumatology Scholarship

As my children reach college age, I know how important financial assistance can be when considering college.  Scholarship applications are exhausting!  Add in an autoimmune disease and sometimes it is just too much, which is why I'd like to share an exciting opportunity for anyone with RA, JIA, psoriatic arthritis (PsA) or ankylosing spondylitis (AS).  AbbVie Is offering $15,000 in scholarships to 15 people!  Application deadline is April 4 so hurry!  Here's additional information.  Good luck!
