In addition to the two-year fellowships, The Scott Carter Foundation has contributed to a number of worthy projects that are working towards the common goal of curing childhood cancer. These projects include:

• The funding of a SKYlab project.
• The purchase of a specialized microscope in Omaha, Nebraska.
• Contributions to Project Woman (a project that pays for mammograms for those who need them, but can’t afford them).
• Camp OK Corral (children’s cancer camp provided through the American Cancer Society).
• Active participation in the American Cancer Society’s “Coaches vs. Cancer” program in many states.
