Concord Hospital Trust, the philanthropic arm of the hospital, announces the Concord Hospital Trust Scholarship Fund for nursing and allied health students.
The Fund, part of the trust’s endowments, was made possible by the generosity of Concord Hospital’s many benefactors, both past and present. Their vision was to inspire and enable students to pursue careers in the nursing and allied healthcare professions to enrich their lives, while ensuring the continued availability of quality health care to the Greater Concord community.
The Concord Hospital Trust Scholarship Committee, a volunteer sub-committee of the trust’s Stewardship Committee, has developed scholarship eligibility guidelines and will make decisions on fund awards.
“Scholarships are available to deserving students pursuing nursing careers,” said Harriet Resnicoff, scholarship sub-committee chair. “Funds are also available on a limited basis to students pursuing careers in qualifying fields of allied health care. Awards may range from $1,000 to $3,000 for deserving students.”
Scholarships will be awarded based on financial need, academic merit, personal character and other criteria. Students who live within Concord Hospital’s primary service area, have graduated from a high school within the service area, or who have lived within the service area for one year are eligible to apply.
The application is available on the Concord Hospital Trust’s Website at ch-trust.org. All applications must be received or postmarked by April 30. Award decisions will be made by mid-June.
