2/17/2023

The Healthcare Careers Educational Grant program provides financial assistance to Christian County-based students interested in studying health care and offers opportunities to work at Taylorville Memorial Hospital upon degree completion.

“These education grants are key to helping us to create a go-to source for local talent,” said Kim Bourne, president and CEO of Taylorville Memorial Hospital. “We want to help students receive the education they need and encourage them to build their careers in our community at Taylorville Memorial Hospital.”

The Bertrand Hopper Memorial Foundation has been a supporter of the hospital since the 1980s.

“Their long history of giving and the type of donations allow us to encourage young local professionals to make a commitment to stay in the area and eventually consider joining the workforce at Taylorville Memorial Hospital,” added Bourne.

To support the Taylorville Memorial Foundation, tax-deductible contributions can be made payable to Taylorville Memorial Foundation and mailed to 201 E. Pleasant St., Taylorville, IL 62568, or online at memorial.health/tmf.

The Taylorville Memorial Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Organized in 1995, the foundation supports Taylorville Memorial Hospital’s mission to improve lives and build stronger communities through better health.
