The Salina Health Education Foundation (SHEF), the parent organization of Salina Family Healthcare Center (SFHC) and Smoky Hill Family Medicine Residency Program (SHFMRP), has officially opened applications for the SFHC Scholarship Fund. This marks the third round of scholarships awarded since the fund’s inception, created to honor the dedicated service of former Board and Finance Committee members.
The SFHC Scholarship will award approximately $500 to student(s) pursuing careers in medicine, dentistry, behavioral health, pharmacy, optometry, healthcare ancillary services, or healthcare administration within the State of Kansas. Applicants must be 16 years of age or older and committed to entering the healthcare profession in Kansas.
“We would like to thank those Board and Finance Committee Members who have volunteered their time to build SHEF into the strong, impactful organization that it is today,” said Dr. Robert Kraft, Chief Executive Officer.
“Their legacy will help future healthcare leaders in Kansas make contributions of their own in the field and in the lives of hundreds or even thousands of patients.”
