Welcome to Breakaway.
The Vital Choice Project invites you to apply for our Breakaway Grant program.
What Breakaway Is
Breakaway is TVCP's game-changing grant program, fueling the education of healthcare students passionate about natural medicine and nutrition. We believe every healthcare professional, regardless of specialty, must understand nutrition to truly serve their patients.
Breakaway empowers Gen Z to lead a healthcare revolution rooted in God-given solutions and free from Big Pharma dependency. Grants fund tuition, textbooks, conferences, course materials, and certifications.
Who is eligible
To apply, you must meet all three of the following:
- Active Club Natural or Gold Standard Study member
- Minimum 3.0 GPA
- Enrolled in a healthcare-related degree program (pre-med, nursing, PT, nutrition, and beyond)
How the grant is taxed
Grant funds used for tuition, required fees, or required course materials are generally not taxable to you. Funds used for conferences, certifications, or other purposes are generally taxable income to you.
This is general information, not tax advice — consult a tax professional for your specific situation. If you're selected, we'll follow up separately for a Form W-9 before funds are disbursed.

- Fill out this application to the best of your ability

One quick disclosure.
