The deadline has passed for this scholarship.
General Scholarship Information ASU Foundation and the Sonoran Spine Education and Research Foundation are pleased to announce the availability of the Sonoran Spine Foundation Scholarship for the 2008‐2009 academic year. This scholarship is intended for students attending Arizona State University, Northern Arizona University, or University of Arizona, who are involved with their community and/or schools and have overcome obstacles in their life presented by a spinal disorder. The Sonoran Spine Research and Education Foundation (SSREF) is an independent, non‐profit organization founded in 2000 for three specific purposes: 1) To support or sponsor educational programs on matters related to the spine. For example, SSREF supports public awareness programs and advocacy groups for spinal disorders ranging from back and neck pain to complex scoliosis. SSREF sponsors the Arizona Spine and Scoliosis Seminar and supports groups such as the Scoliosis Association, both locally and nationally. 2) The SSREF supports spine research activities. Projects of interest include pediatric and adult scoliosis, kyphosis, spine trauma, osteoporosis, spondylolisthesis, degenerative disc disease and work related back injuries. 3) The SSREF Board of Directors is committed to supporting college scholarships annually to students with spinal disorders. This scholarship is made possible by donations received from the general public, patients and vendors who work with Dr. Dennis G. Crandall through research to improve options for treatment available to persons with spinal deformities and injuries.
