Summit Health Cares is committed to supporting the next generation of healthcare leaders. We understand that many driven students who want to pursue a career in medicine, often realize the journey to get there is too expensive. SHC is working to equip the next generation of healthcare leaders to build a healthier, more equitable future. The Next Generation scholarship awards up to $2,500 to help relieve the financial burden surrounding that journey.
