- Application, resume, and essay submitted to broox.anderson@imail.org by April 18, 2025
Selection and award process:
School representative committees will select the awardees independently from Intermountain Health Sevier Valley Hospital. Committees will make awards based on students’ applications, resumes, and essays. An emphasis will be placed on community service and, ideally, community health impact. To receive the award, the recipient must submit proof of college/school registration and return the applicable tax and media release forms. Sevier Valley Hospital will then make a $1,000 donation directly to the student for tuition or other schooling expenses. Please allow for at least four weeks processing time from the time forms are submitted to the time that the award check is received. Scholarship awards will be held for up to three years for those recipient(s) who will not be attending college/school during the following school year(s).
