Scholarship Applications
NEW KCPA Scholarship Application Portal NOW OPEN for 2020-21 – DEADLINE EXTENDED to 5/15/2020!
**UPDATE: We at Kids’ Chance of Pennsylvania understand the impact COVID-19 has been having on our current scholarship recipients, applicants, your families and schools. In order to provide you some additional support and peace of mind, we’re further extending our deadline from April 15 to May 15, 2020. Hopefully this will give you some extra time to secure the documentation you need from your educational institutions and workers’ compensation providers. If you have ANY questions or concerns about your application or scholarship, please don’t hesitate to contact us at info@kidschanceofpa.org or (215) 302-3598. Please stay home and we hope everyone stays healthy.**
Kids’ Chance of Pennsylvania has partnered with Kaleidoscope, Inc., to create a new Application portal for the 2020-21 scholarship year. We believe this new interface will be much more user-friendly and will help you stay on track with submitting proper supporting documentation and meeting deadlines. An added benefit of the Kaleidoscope partnership is access to additional scholarship grants for which you may qualify.
Please follow the link below to enter the new portal. Even though you have applied before, you will still need to enter all workers’ compensation documentation, as this is a new system. If this is a problem, please let us know immediately. If you already have an account with Kaleidoscope, please log in first, then enter the Kids’ Chance of PA portal.

Deadline for submission of all available documents has been EXTENDED to May 15, 2020. The Registrar’s Office and Financial Aid Office Forms are available for download in the application and are due between August 1-15, 2020. Scholarship recipients will be notified by mid-September 2020.

Because I am a Spanish a major, studying abroad in a Spanish-speaking country is highly recommended. Because of my Kids’ Chance scholarship, I had the wonderful experience of spending six weeks studying Spanish at Univeritas Castellae in Valladolid, Spain this past summer.
Kids’ Chance of PA has not only supported me, but also my four older sisters who recently graduated from college. Your support to our family has really had an impact on our lives. Thank you again for your generosity and compassion.
University of Pittsburgh
Thank you once again for the generous scholarship! I love it here at PSU. The classes and professors are all amazing and all the clubs and organizations keep me busy every day.
I would like to thank you for the opportunity you have given me with the scholarship I received. I am attending Lehigh Carbon Community Center and majoring in Early Education to become a kindergarten teacher. I am very grateful for the help I have received from Kids’ Chance.
I would like to thank you so much for the scholarship money. Getting scholarship money makes the start of any school year easier. I am currently in Plastics and Polymer Science at Pennsylvania College of Technology.
I am so thankful and appreciative of everything your organization has done to help me obtain not only my goals but those of so many children who face similar situations.
