July 7, 2017–The Southeast Georgia Health System Camden Campus Auxiliary
recently presented $1,000 scholarship awards to three graduating seniors
who have served as
Volunteens
at the Health System and are planning to pursue a degree in the health
care field.
All graduates of Camden County High School, the scholarship winners are
Taylor Coffel of White Oak, Leah Register of Kingsland and Alyssa Truong
of St. Marys. The
Volunteens
received their scholarships during awards presentations at their high
school,
and were also recognized at the Auxiliary’s quarterly meeting in June.
Taylor Coffel plans to study biology (pre-med) at Georgia Southern University.
Her goal is to become a cardio/neurosurgeon.
Also planning to attend Georgia Southern University, Leah Register will
pursue a nursing degree to become a nurse practitioner specializing in
labor and delivery.
Aspiring to be a neuroscience physician or researcher, Alyssa Truong will
attend the University of Georgia to study biochemistry and molecular biology.
The
Volunteen
program is designed for teenagers, ages 14-18, who enjoy helping others
and desire to learn more about health care and volunteerism. Graduating
high school seniors who have served at least 20 hours of volunteer service
through the
Volunteen
program and plan to pursue careers in health care were encouraged to apply
for the Auxiliary scholarships offered at the Brunswick and Camden campuses.
