Healthcare Scholarships for Students in Northern California
For more than 50 years, the North Valley Health Education Foundation has helped students pursue healthcare careers by reducing financial barriers to education. Through scholarships and community support, we invest in students who are committed to strengthening healthcare across Northern California’s North Valley.
Each year, NVHEF awards scholarships to students studying nursing, medicine, paramedicine, and allied health fields. Our scholars are enrolled in community colleges, universities, and graduate programs. Many now serve local hospitals, clinics, and community health organizations.
Over 1,100 scholarships for healthcare students have been awarded. More than $1 million invested in healthcare education. Community members can help strengthen healthcare education by supporting students through NVHEF.

When healthcare students succeed, communities benefit. By supporting healthcare students on their educational journey, North Valley Health Education Foundation helps ensure a strong, compassionate healthcare workforce for the North State—today and for generations to come.
Scholarship applications are open January 1–May 1 each year.
