CMC Foundation Healthcare Scholarships: 
No matter what shape health care takes in the future, there will always be a need for people who provide skilled and compassionate care. CMC Foundation and our scholarship donors are dedicated to helping the students who will be tomorrow's caring health professionals. Each year we award scholarships of $500-$1000 to Missoula County high school students and Community Medical Center employees interested in healthcare careers. Since our Healthcare Scholarship program began in 1990, we have awarded more than 450 scholarships for a total of $250,000.
