This marks the ninth consecutive year that RiverWoods Exeter residents have supported Great Bay nursing students, with more than $125,000 in scholarships contributed since the partnership began.
This year's recipients are Cara Letourneau, Aspen Ziadeh, Autumn Loving, Matthew Noonan, Alex Kirk, Amy McCormick, Mandy Walters, and Corrinne Morin.
Dr. Dulcinea Kaufman, chair of Great Bay's Department of Nursing, said it best: "For nine years, RiverWoods Exeter residents have invested in our students and in the future of nursing. These scholarships do far more than ease financial burdens. They give students the opportunity to spend more time learning, caring for patients during clinical experiences, and preparing to serve our communities as compassionate, highly skilled nurses."
Congratulations to all eight recipients, and a sincere thank you to RiverWoods Exeter for their continued commitment to our students and to the future of nursing in New Hampshire.
