Health Care & Education

Education and providing scholarships, especially nursing scholarships, are areas of primary focus for the Musgrave Foundation.

The President of Cox College of Nursing and Health Sciences, Anne Liners Brett Ph.D., RN, writes:

"Year after year the Musgrave Foundation provides thousands of dollars worth of scholarships to dozens of our students. These are students who are now able to fulfill their dreams of becoming conscientious, caring members of the healthcare community."

"Our College is also better able to court the best and the brightest in the region because of the financial help from the Musgrave Foundation. Jeanette Musgrave's philosophy of a "hand up not a hand out" has certainly changed the lives of hundreds of caregivers and patients alike in our community. For that, we are forever grateful."

My Story

After receiving my 20-year class reunion invitation, I decided to go to college and obtain my degree in nursing. I had spent the last 10 years being an at-home mom and so finances were very tight and I was worried about how we would pay for my college. It was through the generosity of the Musgrave Foundation and others that I was able to complete my degree with minimal financial impact on my family. This was a huge blessing to me and I will be forever grateful for the financial assistance I received. THANK YOU A HUNDRED TIMES OVER!!!
