Alice Hamm Memorial Scholarship

In July of 1979, the Alice Hamm Memorial Scholarship was established by the GRMC Auxiliary. The scholarship is designed to assist those individuals completing a R.N. program. In 1983, the program was extended to include LPN programs, and in 1984 was extended to other programs in health related fields.

2. The scholarship application shall include one each of an academic, business, and a personal reference. Preference will be given to applicants who express intent to work after graduation at GRMC if a position is available.
3. There are no restrictions for the use of the money received. However, it is preferred that the money be used for tuition, books and/or laboratory fees.
