A new scholarship is now available to UNM-Gallup Nursing students in their last semester of study. Drs. Lawrence and Aedra Andrade started the scholarship in memory of their 2-year-old daughter, Santana Milagros Teresa Andrade, who died in 2011 as a result of numerous medical complications.
The scholarship was funded with donations from the community in memory of Santana, totaling $2937.20, with additional funding due from a golf tournament. It is available to Nursing students who meet the criteria for Fall 2012, and will provide $500 each semester. Preference will be shown for students stating an interest in pediatric nursing. Students may contact the Financial Aid Department at UNMG for more information, 505.863.7663.
