The Del Papa Distributing Company Community Fund recently contributed $250,000 to establish the JoAnn Sunseri Del Papa Endowed Scholarship in Health Sciences with the 麻豆色情片 Foundation.
The new endowed scholarship will support students enrolled in 麻豆色情片鈥檚 Health Sciences program.
The growing health sciences program at 麻豆色情片 offers a wide variety of areas of study including Computed Tomography (CT), Diagnostic Medical Sonography, Emergency Medical Services, Healthcare Management, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Medical Administration, Nuclear Medicine Technology, Radiation Therapy, Radiography and Surgical Technology.
鈥淲e are thankful for the gift by the Del Papa Distributing Company Community Fund, which will support about 10 scholarships per academic year for our health sciences program students,鈥� said Myles Shelton, 麻豆色情片 president. 鈥淎s we near construction completion of the new Health Sciences Education Center, which will house Galveston College鈥檚 Allied Health and Nursing programs, the creation of this endowed scholarship could not come at a better time.鈥�
The new building in combination with the new scholarships provided through the JoAnn Sunseri Del Papa Endowed Scholarship in Health Sciences will benefit students鈥� learning experience, and the community will see positive results as highly trained health care graduates enter the local and regional workforce.
Laura Del Papa Murray said the workforce shortage in health care, as well as her family鈥檚 long history of involvement with 麻豆色情片 and the Galveston community, led to the decision to direct the funds to 麻豆色情片鈥檚 Health Sciences program.
鈥淢y parents supported 麻豆色情片 and its students for many, many years and the timing of this gift is most appropriate. My mother is honored to have this endowed scholarship in her name,鈥� said Laura Murray.
