San Andreas, CA…Mark Twain Hospital Foundation Volunteers announced their 2020 high school scholarship recipients this month. A total of five, $1000.00 scholarships were awarded to Calaveras and Bret Harte High Schools graduating seniors. More than 50 applications were received and the selection process takes into account grade point average, community service and the student’s interest in pursuing a health care related career.

From Bret Harte High School the recipient was Jimena Citlali and Gabrielle Hutchens. Calavares High School recipients are, Jade Kesterson, Nicholar Tanner Saliski and Makenna Miller. All five Seniors plan to major in a health care related field of study.

The volunteers host craft bazars, bake sales, and receive a portion of revenue from purse, shoe and book sales held periodically at the hospital. These funds, and direct donations, support the volunteer’s Scholarship Program for area high schools and children of MTMC employees.

To donate to the volunteer’s fund, or another area of the hospital, donors can visit www.supportmarktwain.org or mail gifts to Mark Twain Medical Center Foundation, 768 Mountain Ranch Road, San Andreas CA 95249.
