Jessica Stone Memorial Scholarship

To continue our mission of assisting as many children and young adults as possible, we established the Olivia's Bears - Jessica Stone Memorial Scholarship in 2020. Olivia envisioned this scholarship to support college-bound students who are pursuing their educational dreams while battling or recovering from a life-threatening illness. This scholarship honors her dear friend Jessica Stone, who tragically succumbed to the same cancer that Olivia fought in 2013. Each year, Olivia's Bears will award up to six $1000 scholarships in memory of Jessica Stone. Beginning in 2023, we extended this opportunity to include siblings of those who are currently battling or have battled a life-threatening illness. 

Our 2026 application is now open and the deadline to apply is May 1st. View the application materials here:
