The

to learn more about health care and volunteerism. Volunteering is a great
way for students to explore health care careers as well as earn the volunteer
hours required for many college and scholarship applications.
Graduating high school seniors who have served at least 20 hours of volunteer
service through the
Volunteen
program and who will be pursuing careers in health care may apply for
the Auxiliary scholarships offered at the Brunswick and Camden campuses.
