The application window is open for the Granville Health System Foundation’s annual Sam Perry Memorial Scholarship. The deadline to apply is 5 p.m. on April 30, 2025.
The GHS Foundation will name the 2025 recipient of the $1,000 award by the end of May, according to information from Marketing & Foundation Director Lauren B. Roberson. The scholarship will be pair toward the recipient’s tuition in August 2025. It’s a one-time scholarship, but recipients may reapply for as many years as they are in school.
In 2009, the Granville Health System Board of Trustees and the GHS Foundation Board of Directors established a scholarship fund in honor of Sam Perry, a Physician’s Assistant whose specialized medical care earned him deep respect from both patients and peers throughout his career at Granville Health System.
Every year, the GHS Foundation awards its Sam Perry Memorial Scholarship to a Granville County resident who has been accepted into a two-year or four-year Allied Health Program at an accredited school with the intention to pursue a career in the healthcare field. Programs eligible for this scholarship include clinical laboratory sciences, physical therapy, occupational therapy, radiological science, pharmacy, RN, BSN, ADN, LPN, dentistry and related careers, physician assistant, and nurse practitioner.
