Mary Alice Kramer Aspiring Nurse Scholarship
The Mary Alice Kramer Aspiring nurse scholarship has been created in memory of a beloved mother, Mary Alice Kramer, whose nursing career spanned 45 years and included time as a nurse in a hospital, as an office nurse for a gastroenterologist and culminated in serving as the the school nurse for the Charleston Community Schools in Charleston, Illinois.

The growing nursing shortage threatens the wellness of the population, and addressing it requires uplifting today’s students so they can become the nurses of tomorrow.
This scholarship aims to honor the life of Mary Alice Kramer by supporting students who are following in her footsteps and pursuing nursing.
