Mon Health Medical Center Foundation Awards $68,000 in Scholarships for 2022-23

Posted Date: 7/15/2022
 
The Mon Health Medical Center Foundation recently awarded $68,000 in scholarships to 54 area students pursuing degrees in healthcare fields for the 2022-23 school term.

The scholarships are valued between $1,000 and $2,500 annually. Selection was based on financial need and academic performance. Each applicant also submitted a letter describing why they selected a specific health career. A sub-committee of the Foundation’s Board of Directors selected the recipients.

The Foundation created the Health Career Scholarship program in 1991 to promote healthcare careers in fields with projected worker shortages in the Morgantown area. Since the establishment of the program, the Foundation has awarded nearly $750,000 in Health Career Scholarships and has expanded the program to include 13 counties in North Central West Virginia and two counties in Southwestern Pennsylvania.
