Gallagher & Co., the Gallagher Student Health branch is proud to have had the opportunity to award six scholarships of $7,500 each in 2017, with over 80 scholarships being awarded since the Program's inception 17 years ago.

Scholarship recipients are selected by the Scholarship Board of Directors, a distinguished group of higher education professionals, and are given the option to utilize the funds for tuition, textbooks, class materials, living expenses, computers or other academic equipment of their choice.

This holistic approach to financial support for students emphasizes Gallagher Student Health's commitment to corporate social responsibility and investment in the future of the healthcare field.
