Saint Francis Foundation

School of Nursing Alumni Scholarship Program

In 1938, Marguerite Coleman, RN, who served as President of the Saint Francis Hospital School of Nursing Alumni Association, created a "loan program" to assist graduates in advancing their nursing education. This program transformed into a scholarship award and more than $500,000 has been presented. 

This year a ceremony was not held due to COVID-19 but $70,000 was distributed to Gregory Lagosz; Kate Carleson; Amanda Fagan; Christina Hare; Rachel Daniels; and Theresa Sarfo.

Application Deadline is July 15, 2023.    Application
