The Benefis Foundation’s Healthcare Scholarship Program is designed to help students from Great Falls and the surrounding region pursue their dreams of becoming healthcare providers.

Thanks to the generosity of many donors, Benefis Foundation has awarded more than $1.38 million in scholarships to students pursuing a degree, certification, or advancement in a medically related field since the program began in 1998.
