RMHF Scholarships Open Through March 15
The Roosevelt Memorial Healthcare Foundation welcomes scholarship applications for 2021. For area students interested in pursuing a career in healthcare, RMHF is currently offering two $500 scholarships to graduating students from the Culbertson, Froid and Bainville School Districts.
Students must be attending or planning on attending a two, or four-year accredited college or university. The scholarship is also available to current college or graduate students in the healthcare field of study who are seeking higher education.
The RMHF Scholarship Committee is now accepting applications until the March 15 deadline.
Applications will be available through the high school counselor’s offices and at the front desk at RMC. Applications can also be emailed to interested students.
“One of the greatest challenges for healthcare organizations in frontier America is recruiting professional staff that will come here and want to stay. Ideally, through these scholarship opportunities, we hope our local youth will someday want to return home and use their professional talents in our area,” said Jennifer Kessner, CFO for RMC. “However, the scholarships are a great way for us to assist local students with achieving their educational goals, wherever their professions take them,” she added.
Since the program began in 2010, a total of $8,000 has been given in scholarships.
“The generosity of our donors allows the Foundation to invest in the future of healthcare. It’s the foundation’s way of giving back to the community through educational support of the next generation of healthcare professionals,” said Audrey Stromberg, administrator for RMC.

Applications should be mailed to: RMHF Scholarships Program, PO Box 419, Culbertson, MT 59218.
The RMHF Foundation is a non-profit 501(c) 3 corporation with the mission of enhancing and securing the future of quality healthcare for the region.
