Anti-Aging & Regenerative Associates encourages students to apply for the firm’s annual Paying It Forward Scholarship.
Each year, we designate a scholarship winner who receives $2,500 to apply to their pursuits in higher education. The 2022 deadline for entries is June 15, 2023.
About the Paying It Forward Scholarship
Paying it forward is a simple concept. Whenever someone helps you out or does something nice for you, rather than paying that person back, you repay the kindness to another individual. Despite its simplicity, the act of paying it forward changes lives—some might say it can change entire cultures.
“We’ve all heard the wonderful stories of pay-it-forward chains happening at the local coffee shop or other heartwarming anecdotes of people performing random acts of kindness,” said Dr. Jason Schottel, Co-founder at Anti-Aging & Regenerative Associates. “Not only do these seemingly insignificant acts instantly change a person’s mood—of both the giver and the recipient—but the ripple effect can change someone’s day, and the right change at the right time can alter a person’s life.
“Our firm believes in the power of regenerating a person’s life by focusing on wellness, and that includes both physical and emotional wellness,” Schottel continued. “This is why we find the “pay it forward” concept so inspiring, so compelling, and we want to see how today’s students will apply this concept to their healthcare professions.
“This is why we created the Paying It Forward Scholarship.”
