Healthcare or health science

The health industry is of vital importance to the safety and wellness of the world but it is also often difficult to enter.

The significant education required to work as a health professional can make these careers inaccessible to students who may not have the financial resources needed to pay for years of school. As a result, many prospective doctors, nurses, and other care providers have to choose an alternate path or go deep into debt to finance their tuition.

This scholarship seeks to honor the life of Jeune-Mondestin by supporting students who are passionate about making a difference in the world through health.

Any undergraduate student pursuing a two or four-year program related to healthcare or health science may apply for this scholarship opportunity.

To apply, tell us about yourself, why you chose to pursue health, and what difference you hope to make through your future endeavors.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve wanted to be a nurse. Even as a young child, I loved helping my friends, siblings, and anyone around me who would let me. I remember pretending to treat their illnesses and injuries during playtime, and those moments sparked my passion for caregiving. Becoming a nurse has been a lifelong dream and achieving it would be one of my greatest accomplishments. A moment of transparency here. For quite a while I was afraid to pursue a degree in nursing. I kept hearing how difficult nursing school is and I allowed those doubts to get in my head. Instead, I explored alternative fields that allowed me to help others. I began my career as a Medical Assistant, a role I thoroughly enjoyed. Working closely with providers and nurses gave me invaluable insight into the healthcare field. While I loved the work, I often felt like I wasn’t fulfilling my full potential. I knew I could do more, make a greater impact, and contribute on a deeper level. Wanting to continue helping others in a different capacity, I became a Massage Therapist. This has been, by far, the most rewarding job I’ve had. Helping clients struggling with chronic pain, depression, inflammation, lymphatic issues, or simply those who needed to relax gave me a unique perspective on the challenges people face every day. The gratitude I felt when clients told me I had made them feel better was incredibly powerful almost like a superpower. The knowledge and skills I’ve gained as a Massage Therapist, combined with my passion for helping others, will be an asset as I transition into a nursing career. When I think of a nurse, I envision someone who is kind, compassionate, and deeply cares for others. A nurse is passionate about helping others while also committed to self-growth and self-care. To me, a nurse is selfless yet understands the importance of boundaries. Working in a field where the primary purpose is to help others, especially during life-changing moments, is incredibly rewarding. Beyond my passion for helping others, I am especially dedicated to women’s health. My goal is to specialize in areas such as OBGYN, mother-baby care, and labor and delivery. I’ve seen women in my life struggle with health issues without clear answers, and I want to make a difference. Becoming a nurse will allow me to leave a positive, lasting impact on the lives of others.
