The CalvertHealth Foundation Scholarship committee recently awarded the largest scholarship total in its history – providing $170,231 to 35 award recipients. Twenty-three of the applicants will receive Allied Health scholarships and seven of the applicants will receive E. Anne Spitzer Scholarships. The latter is specifically for students in pursuit of a medical degree. Since the scholarship program began in 1991, it has awarded more than 545 scholarships totaling $925,000 in student assistance.
Each recipient received a gift box to help celebrate their accomplishments. Vice President of Brand Strategy and Philanthropy Theresa Johnson said, “We are honored to be able to provide this assistance to students who are actively seeking higher education in an allied health or medical field.” She added, “We are always looking for driven and compassionate students to join our team and help us realize our vision of making a difference in every life we touch.”
