The Tuomey Foundation presents the 2010 Employee Scholarship Recipients The Employee Scholarship Fund was created in 2000 by employees who wanted to help Tuomey families with their educational goals. We began awarding scholarships to Tuomey employees, immediate family members of Tuomey employees (as specified), and active volunteers of Tuomey Healthcare System, who have at least 250 accumulated hours of volunteer service, in 2003, using the interest earned on that fund. To date we have awarded 32 scholarships totaling $16,000.00. Awards are given based on academic performance and community service, and can be awarded to students who are currently accepted or currently enrolled in courses of higher education.
