Live Like Cam
SCHOLARSHIPS

The Live Like Cam Scholarship was created to honor Cameron's life, kindness, and impact on those around him.  Through this scholarship, we hope to support students who demonstrate compassion, community involvement, leadership, and a heart for helping others live fully and give back.  

Our mission is to continue Cameron's legacy by investing in people who strive to make a positive difference in their schools, communities, and everyday life. 

Supporting Future Trades & Technical Careers

Since launching the foundation, Live Like Cam has proudly awarded scholarships to students pursuing trades, technical education, and hands-on career paths.  

In addition to local high school scholarships, we also supports technical and trade education programs that help students build meaningful careers and strong futures.

In 2026, we were honored to award scholarships to 13 students across multiple participating schools.

A Different Path.  The Same Opportunity.

There isn't one path to building a meaningful career.  We believe determination and a passion for learning matter more than following a traditional path.  

Inspired by Cameron's work ethic and passion for the skilled trades, this scholarship supports people pursuing meaningful careers -- regardless of the path they took to get there.
