INTERESTED IN A HEALTH CARE PROFESSION?
The Clarion Hospital Foundation is looking for scholarship applicants. This year we are awarding 6 scholarships: the $1000 Dr. John E. Brooks Memorial Scholarship, two $1000 Joseph and Helen Miller Memorial Scholarships, two $1,000 Fran Shope Memorial Scholarships, and one $1,000 James B. Alexander Memorial Scholarship. Mrs. Mary Brooks, wife of the late Dr. John E. Brooks, and other family members created the Brooks scholarship in the late doctor’s memory.
