The Gibson Area Hospital Auxiliary is excited to announce they have eight scholarships to award this year.
Scholarships this year include two $2000 scholarships from The Verna Buck Fund. These two scholarships are designated for nursing students only.
For students choosing a career in any medical field, the GAH Auxiliary offers two scholarships in the amount of $2000, and the GAH Gift Shop offers a $1000 scholarship.
The Arthur and Ane Jensen Noland Family Scholarship Fund and the William and Viola Garrett Scholarship Fund will each be offering a $1000 scholarship for students who live in Ford County or who have graduated from a Ford County school. These may be awarded for any school work leading to a career in any medical field.
In addition, the CEDF Foundation will award a $2000 scholarship for any student pursing a degree in nursing.
The GAH Auxiliary hopes that all scholarship recipients will return to the Gibson Area Hospital & Health Services to begin their new careers upon completion of their educations.
Scholarship materials may be obtained from the guidance office in area schools or online at www.gibsonhospital.org/auxiliary/. For any questions regarding the scholarships offered this year please contact Sue Walker at 217-784-8705.
