Amy Naparstek Memorial Scholarship
The Amy Naparstek Memorial Scholarship was established in 1996 in memory of Amy Naparstek, daughter of MHOA past-president J. David Naparstek. This award is open to the general public, with preference given to MHOA members. A total of $2,000 is disbursed annually at the discretion of the scholarship committee and awarded at the June MHOA quarterly meeting for the upcoming school year.
Applicants must be enrolled in a public, environmental or allied health degree or certificate program at a recognized educational institution. An announcement for application submission is made in early April of each year with a May 15th submission deadline.
