The Scholarship Fund is made possible in large part by generous annual donations from the Adena Women’s Board and Adena’s Volunteer Advisory Council. Since Adena’s Health Care Scholarship program was established in 2002, $815,000 in scholarship funds have been awarded to local students.

Students from the following counties were awarded scholarships: Ross County (32 students); Highland County (six); Jackson County (five); Pickaway County (four); Pike County (four); Fayette County (three); Scioto County (two); and Athens County (one). Among those awarded, 11 Adena caregivers received scholarship funds to further their health care careers.

Students working toward health care degrees may apply for Adena Health Care Scholarship funds in the spring of each year. Information and application forms are available to download at www.adena.org/foundation.
