Nursing Scholarship

Every year, The Auxiliary offers a $5,000 college scholarship to a high school senior in our core service area who plans to pursue an education in the field of nursing. The current nursing shortage crisis has been strongly documented, both nationally and regionally. Since NorthShore is committed to the future of healthcare, Auxiliary members felt that this scholarship would be a well-directed effort.

All students with a desire to further their education in nursing at a college level are encouraged to apply each spring. Congratulations to the 2011 Nursing Scholarship Winner Elise Allen, who attended Evanston Township High School and will be attending Illinois Wesleyan’s Direct Nursing Program.

For more information about the scholarship, contact the Auxiliary office at 847.570.5095 or email at auxiliary@northshore.org.

Applications will be availiable in early 2012.
