Stanly Health Foundation offers 2 scholarships

College students pursuing health care careers will have two opportunities to apply for scholarships awarded by the Stanly Health Foundation in 2023.

The Stanly Health Foundation Roy and Lou Hinson Scholarship will provide up to $2,500 to help defray the cost of tuition for an Atrium Health Stanly teammate, the dependent of a teammate or a resident of Stanly or Montgomery counties who will have completed at least 60 hours of undergraduate study by June 2023 with a cumulative undergraduate GPA of 3.2 or higher.

The student must be accepted into a healthcare program of study for either undergraduate or graduate school.

The Hinson Scholarship celebrates the late Roy Hinson’s 41 years of service to Atrium Health, and his wife, Lou, who is retired from public education and provided many years of volunteer support to the Roy M. Hinson Cancer Center.

The Stanly Health Foundation C.B. Crook Family Scholarship will provide an award of up to $5,000 to help defray the cost of tuition for an Atrium Health Stanly teammate, the dependent of a teammate or a resident of Stanly or Montgomery counties who will have completed at least 60 hours of undergraduate study by June 2023 with a cumulative undergraduate GPA of 3.2 or higher.

The student must be accepted into a healthcare program of study for either undergraduate or graduate school.

The Crook Family Scholarship honors the community involvement of the late C.B. Crook and his wife, Betty.

“The Crooks have been leading donors to the Stanly Health Foundation since it was first organized in 1990,” stated Jane Boone, executive director of the foundation. “C.B. served as chairman of our major donor circle, the Stanly Society, for over 20 years until his death in 2016.”

Complete details, criteria and applications are available on the Foundation’s website at www.stanlyhealthfoundation.org or by contacting Amy Jones at 980-323-4096 or amy.r.jones@atriumhealth.org.
