Each year, the Slocum Research & Education Foundation offers a number of $1,500 college scholarships to high school seniors who maintain high academic achievement, participate in extracurricular leadership activities at their school and demonstrate a commitment to community service.
The scholarship targets students who plan to pursue a healthcare-related career path. The Foundation has encouraged students to apply who have been influenced to pursue a health-related profession or degree as a result of personal experiences or challenges with health, illness or injury.
