HOUSTON, Mo. — The Texas County Memorial Hospital Healthcare Foundation plans to award $2,000 in educational scholarships for the spring 2020 academic year, and applications for those scholarships are currently being accepted.
The program is designed to assist area students that are pursuing or planning to pursue education in a healthcare related field or students currently working in healthcare that are pursuing additional education for their current career. Graduates of Texas County and Mountain Grove schools who reside in the TCMH service area of Texas County and Mountain Grove are eligible to apply.
The Healthcare Foundation is in its twelfth year of awarding scholarships in the fall and the spring, and the Foundation’s board of directors has awarded scholarships totaling $107,000 in that time.
The scholarship application asks for information about the student and requires a short essay about the student’s career and educational goals.
