A donation has been given to Taylorville Memorial Hospital to help support the Healthcare Careers Educational Grant program.  The Bertrand Hopper Memorial Foundation gave $10,000 to the Grant Program and this is the sixth time they’ve given this gift to the organization. 

The Healthcare Careers Educational Grant program provides financial assistance to Christian County-based students who are interested in studying health care and offers opportunities to work at TMH upon completing their degree. The Bertrand Hopper Memorial Foundation has been a supporter of the hospital since the 1980s. 

Kim Bourne, president and CEO of TMH says that educational grants are key to helping create a go-to source for local talent.  She says TMH wants to help students receive the education they need and to encourage them to build their careers in the community.
