Warren scholarship
Elivia M. Kipe, a critical care technician at WellSpan Waynesboro Hospital, is the recipient of the Pearle E. Warren Nursing Scholarship, through the Warren Trust Fund. Kipe, who is attending Wilson College in the registered nursing program and will graduate in 2025, will receive a scholarship of $5,000.
The scholarship is made possible through a bequest of Pearle E. Warren, a nursing assistant and home health care aide who had a love of nursing, to assist Waynesboro Hospital employees in their second year or beyond of an accredited nursing program. The Warren Trust Fund has awarded a total of $45,000 to 21 hospital employees since 2003.
The Laboratory Memorial Scholarship, in memory of employees Mindy S. Wagaman and Marsha Smith at WellSpan Waynesboro Hospital, is for students enrolled in a program leading to certification as a phlebotomist, medical laboratory technician or medical technologist. A total of $10,500 has been awarded to nine applicants since 2010. There were no applicants this year.
Members of the scholarship committee are Jill Kessler, Sherry Newcomer, Alice Noll and Ruth Strausbaugh.
Applications for 2025 scholarships will be available in high school guidance offices, the hospital’s volunteer office, and on their websites in January 2025.
