Four Franklin County high school seniors were recently awarded scholarships towards their health-related degree programs from the Martin H. Wennar, MD Health Education Fund.

The $4,000.00 scholarships were presented at a fund-raising event held at the Greg Brown Lodge at the Hard’Ack Recreation facility. Heather Streeter welcomed attendees and Thomas Allerton, a PA with the NOTCH and a former scholarship recipient, was the guest speaker. Dr. Robert Zelazo presented the awards to the honorees.

The 2024 recipients of the scholarships are:

• Alyssa Boudreau from BFA St. Albans, who will be in a pre-pharmacy program
• Meagan Kuhn from BFA St. Albans, who will be studying nursing
• Lillian Robtoy from Enosburg Falls High School, who will be studying nursing
• Liam Tatro from BFA St. Albans, who will be studying nursing

Each year, the Martin H. Wennar Health Professions Scholarships are presented to graduating high school seniors entering collegiate studies in a healthcare field. Scholarships are awarded based on academic merit and community service.

Congratulations to these winners, and we look forward to hearing about their successful healthcare careers in the future.
