The BuzzRx Bee Healthy Scholarship Program

Investing in Future Health Leaders

About the BuzzRx Bee Healthy Scholarship

BuzzRx is investing in the next generation of healthcare professionals through the first annual BuzzRx Bee Healthy Scholarship Fund. This scholarship is a resource to help you continue your higher education journey and pursue your passions.

We want to celebrate individuals who are either beginning their health careers or currently enrolled in health-related education programs and demonstrate leadership at school and in their communities. We are currently offering four scholarships of $5,000 each for college and university undergraduate or graduate students who demonstrate a commitment to improving the health and wellness of their communities.

Who Is the BuzzRx Bee Healthy Scholarship For?

We believe that health is the primary foundation required for individuals and the economy to thrive. That’s why we’re giving back to the next generation of healthcare professionals pursuing one of the following career paths:

  • Pharmacists play a vital role in maintaining and promoting public health through prescription safety and efficacy, medication management, counseling, and preventive care.
  • Doctors save lives, promote healing, and help patients maintain, restore, and maximize their physical and mental health.
  • Nurses build trust with their patients to provide continuity of care, promote healthy lifestyles, advocate for patients, and provide health education.
  • Public health professionals help protect and improve communities by preventing the spread of diseases and promoting healthy lifestyles in a clean and safe environment.
  • Healthcare policy-makers and business administrators are vital to enacting and enforcing policies that keep the health system running efficiently.
  • Healthcare engineers, data scientists, and technology-driven careers advance healthcare and increase accessibility. The success of our healthcare industry depends on innovation and technology that supports patients and improves their daily lives.

How BuzzRx Gives Back

BuzzRx’s mission is to build healthier communities by increasing access to affordable prescriptions at pharmacies nationwide. We make feeling better feel good through our BeeKind with BuzzRx program, benefiting one of four life-saving causes:

  • Make-A-Wish: Helps grant local wishes for children with critical illnesses
  • ASPCA: Helps provide funds for vulnerable animals so they can stay in shelters longer, therefore increasing their chances of adoption
  • Food Banks, members of Feeding America: Helps provide meals for food insecure individuals, including children, seniors, and hard-working families
  • National Kidney Foundation: Helps fight kidney disease by raising awareness and increasing access to care for chronic kidney disease patients.

These health-focused charitable partnerships further our ongoing commitment to the communities we serve by giving back to those who need our help the most. BuzzRx donates up to $1 every time someone saves using a BeeKind BuzzRx card. The Bee Healthy Scholarship Fund is a natural extension of BuzzRx’s commitment to giving back to our community by investing in education. BuzzRx is committed to helping develop the next generation of health leaders across the United States.
