Scholarship Application
Love Is Bald: "Pey" It Forward
This is a scholarship that was created for Hoggard students whose lives have been impacted by cancer. This scholarship was created by Peyton's friends to honor the memory of Peyton Dergay, Hoggard Class of 1996. The founding ideas of the scholarship are to keep Peyton's spirit and memory alive, to "Pey" it forward to others, and to never take life, friends, and family for granted. To qualify, you must be admitted to a four-year college or university; have experienced the struggles of cancer through self, friends, or family; and must complete the scholarship application packet. Please see Ms. Hopkins for application materials.
