Scholarship Program

At Clevens Face & Body Specialists, our Brevard doctors value education, academic achievement, and hard work. One of the many ways we give back to our community is through the Clevens Face & Body Specialists Scholarship to recognize a student’s dedication to excellence in pursuit of his or her academic goals.

We understand college can be a significant expense for students and their families. In an effort to celebrate the accomplishments of local college-bound teens and ease the burden for students and their families, we are pleased to offer two $1,000 scholarships to individuals who are planning to attend college in the near future. The scholarships will be awarded on May 15 and November 15 each year. This twice-yearly scholarship is available to any high school junior or senior currently attending any public or private high school located in Brevard County, Florida. We take pride in helping to facilitate the education of our future generations. Regardless of your planned course of study or proposed career path, we encourage you to participate in our scholarship program.
