First-Time Emanuel Scholarships
Awarded To N.E. Community Residents
When John Pham enters Ore­
gon State U niversity in the fa ll o f 1990
to begin pre-med studies, he w ill be
going w ith encouragement and a com ­
mitment from Emanuel Hospital & Health
Center.
A jo in t e ffo rt by the Emanuel
M edical Center Foundation and Eman­
uel Hospital & Health Center w ill result
in four North/Northeast neighborhood
residents receiving a $1000 scholarship
fo r each o f their four years o f college.
The students are comm itted to pursuing
a healthcare career. Pham, w ho lives on
NE A insw orth, currently has a 3.8 grade
point average at Benson H igh School, is
Treasurer o f the National H onor Society
and is an avid tennis player. He also
spends tim e at the Veteran’ s A d m in i­
stration M edical Center, where he has
learned about w orking in a hospital en­
vironment.
“ I am exposed to many pa­
tients and I enjoy w orking w ith them.
Helping someone that is sick or injured
makes me feel like I am a part o f the
medical team. That makes me feel I
have contributed to the com m unity,” he
said.
The scholarships are an out­
growth o f an idea first developed by the
hospital's C om m unity Liaison Forum.
Members o f that group, made up o f
church, business, neighborhood and civic
leaders, thought the establishment o f a
healthcare scholarship scholarship would
be a positive signal to the com m unity
that the hospital was interested in help­
ing local students. The o rigin al plan to
have one scholarship was expanded to
four when the Foundation offered to
fund tw o scholarships, and challenged
the Adm inistration to match them. Other
scholarship winners are D avid T rinh, N.
Delaware St., from W oodrow W ilson
High School; and from Benson High
School, Jennifer Halvorson, NE 72nd,
and David Nguyen, N E 27th.
T rinh, who plans a career in
Pharmacy, w ill attend the U niversity o f
the Pacific in Stockton, C alifornia.
Halvorson and Nguyen w ill m ajor in
Pre-medicinne at L in fie ld College and
the U niversity o f Portland respectively.
