The Eric Marder Scholarship Program of The Immune Deficiency Foundation

The Immune Deficiency Foundation is honored to award scholarships to undergraduate students living with primary immunodeficiency diseases who plan on completing their secondary education. The Eric Marder Scholarship Program is open to patients with a primary immunodeficiency as classified by the World Health Organization and is intended for undergraduate students attending or entering college or a technical training school.

The Eric Marder Scholarship Program of the Immune Deficiency Foundation is made possible by donations to a scholarship fund to honor Eric Marder, a vibrant young man whose life was cut short at the age of 28 by complications of Common Variable Immune Deficiency. This scholarship program not only honors Eric's memory, it also helps students who also have primary immunodeficiency diseases attend college and pursue their dreams.

Applications will be accepted beginning in January 2009. The scholarship deadline will be March 31, 2009.
