Nursing and Healthcare college scholarships are offered annually by the CGH Auxiliary and the CGH Health Foundation. There are two separate applications, both of which can be found at www.cghmc.com/scholarships.

The CGH Auxiliary awards annual $1000 scholarships to students who reside in the CGH service area. Students must have been accepted into their professional school of healthcare study and meet the criteria established by the Auxiliary. Last year five scholarships were awarded.
