HRMC Foundation Awards $8,250 in Health Care Interest Scholarships
June 25, 2024
Huron Regional Medical Center (HRMC) Foundation announces the recipients of 21 Health Care Interest scholarships totaling $8,250, according to Levi Kary, executive director.
“Interest scholarships are awarded to encourage area students who may have an interest in health care to start their studies, even if they aren’t ready to make a commitment to return to the community to work,” said Kary. “These scholarships are beneficial in growing the pipeline of health professionals by allowing students to explore health care careers without a specific commitment to work.”
