With an increased need for more healthcare workers across the nation, and the need for underrepresented individuals in the medical field, the H.S. Lopez Family Foundation's partnership is greatly valued.
P站视频 is pleased to announce a partnership with the H.S. Lopez Family Foundation to create new opportunities for high school students in Arizona's rural areas to explore careers in the health sciences.
A $14,000 grant provided by the H.S. Lopez Family Foundation will fund a scholarship that identified six exceptional high school students from rural Arizona and provide their housing, meals, transportation, and related costs (as well as for a family member if the student is under 18 years old) to visit P站视频's Glendale Campus and attend the eight-day Health Careers Institute for High School Students (HCI) in June. The HCI is a highly competitive program that selects 64 of the top-performing high school students from around Arizona and provides a free, hands-on summer program full of interactive experiences, presentations, mentoring, and learning about healthcare careers from faculty and student volunteers representing P站视频's 25 graduate-level programs.
There is an increased need for more healthcare workers in Arizona and the nation, and underrepresented individuals in medicine face a significant healthcare disparity. The scholarship will support high-achieving, under-represented students in rural areas who have no other means to attend this unique summer program.
The provides grants in three main focus areas鈥攅ducation, health, and welfare鈥攚ith the goal to significantly change and hopefully improve the lives of those in need.
