Enfield Students May Apply for Jewel Epstein Scholarships

Johnson Memorial Medical Center (JMMC), the parent company of Home & Community Health Services (H&CHS), is accepting scholarship applications for its Jewel Epstein Scholarship Program. The $1,000 scholarships provide financial support to students pursuing nursing or an affiliated health care field.

The Jewell Epstein Fund was established in 1952 as a scholarship opportunity for young women of the highest academic standing who were graduating Enfield High School and entering the field of nursing. It has since expanded to include men and graduates of Enrico Fermi High School.

High school students may apply if they will graduate in 2016 and are attending either Enfield High School or Enrico Fermi High School. Two scholarships will be awarded.

Applications can be obtained by contacting Kate Sullivan Vaghini, Development Associate, at 860-684-8162, or at Kate.SullivanVaghini@jmmc.com. The required documents can also be downloaded at www.jmmcdonate.com/scholarship/jewelepstein.

The deadline for submitting applications is March 14, 2016.
