2024 Scholarship winners announced

MANCHESTER — ECPC celebrated the achievements of six local seniors with our 2024 ECPC Scholarship awards, now in its third year.

ECPC selects one senior each from a half dozen local high schools in the communities we serve. Each scholarship award is $2,500 and can be used toward the college of the student’s choice. All recipients plan to pursue a degree in a health-related field, which may include nursing, medicine, healthcare administration and other related specialties.

At ECPC, we view ourselves as being closely connected to the communities where we practice. We recognize that the health of our community includes the pursuit of constant growth through education.
