Investing in Tomorrow’s Caregivers

Pursuing a healthcare career requires dedication, compassion, and a commitment to learning. Through the Thomas Dixon Memorial Scholarship program, Kirby Auxiliary helps students move forward with their education while recognizing their desire to make a difference in the lives of others.
