In 1991, local philanthropist, Ed Kelley, founded the Maude Kelley Scholarship Fund in memory of his late mother. Monies generated from this fund are given to assist students who are planning to enter healthcare professions. The scholarships are based on academic achievement and the likelihood of the recipient returning to work in Howard or contiguous counties.
The purpose of this scholarship is to establish an ongoing source of financial encouragement and motivation to students pursuing degrees and certificates in healthcare professions. Members of the Scholarship Committee will review all applications and recipients are notified by mail in June once awards have been made.
Application Process
Application forms are available from the Community Howard Regional Health Foundation office located at 3548 S. Lafountain St., Kokomo, or online by clicking the link below. Completed applications should be returned to the Foundation office no later than Monday, April 14, 2025.
