Scholarships
We don’t want money to be the reason you can’t use dembrane — but we also don’t want money to be the reason dembrane fails. So we ask for reciprocity.

Mention scholarships during your intake call. We evaluate based on need and novelty — not paperwork. Scholarships apply to both training fees and platform subscriptions.
