Beacon of Light Scholarship
Healthcare workers are the backbone of our nation and dedicate incredible hours and effort to healing and caring for the sick and injured.
The next generation shows remarkable ambition and compassion and is full of future healthcare providers who will carry on and improve the field as current nurses, doctors, and support staff prepare to retire. Often, the only thing standing in the way of passionate students is the exorbitant cost of tuition.
This scholarship seeks to support students who are pursuing higher education so they can afford to complete their degrees and go on to make a difference in the health and wellness of others.
Any high school or undergraduate student who is pursuing a healthcare or medicine-related major may apply for this scholarship opportunity if they have non-profit or volunteering experience.
To apply, tell us why you decided to pursue higher education in healthcare and what your goals are for the future.
