Anders Scholarship

We are proud to announce the third annual Anders Scholarship, awarding $1,000 to a student with a unique appreciation and perspective of the medical field.

Allied Health, Nursing, and Therapy professionals are at the front lines of patient care, touching people's lives every day. Often, these professionals lack recognition of their hard work, and do not receive the physical and mental care they may need.

Through natural disasters, pandemics, and everyday accidents, these professionals run toward the situation head-on every time, sacrificing their time, physical health, mental health, and personal relationships. Some even devote their entire lives to ensure every patient is taken care of with the highest quality of care there is.

The Anders Scholarship honors these brave individuals who put their lives on hold every day to help others.
