“It’s very overwhelming to have the task of reviewing the many applications we receive from students showing interest in the medical field,” said Wanda Davis, scholarship chairperson. “Having to go through the process of elimination, when they’re all so deserving is incredibly difficult. We are just so proud we can help them start their journey.”
