Bermuda Health Foundation was founded in ten years ago by brothers Philip Butterfield, Vincent Hollinsid and former Premier Dr. Ewart Brown, along with their friend, the late K. Murray Brown, for the purpose of honouring Bermudians who have provided outstanding public service and providing scholarships for Bermudian students aspiring to careers in the medical field.
Since its inception in 2002, the Bermuda Health Foundation has provided over thirty scholarships to Bermudians of all ages who aspire to work in the medical field..
Congratulations to the recipients. A great job by The Bermuda Health Foundation recognizing the talents, accomplishments and ability of these individuals and choosing to annually(for the last ten years) honor and award people with scholarships to help with their future endeavors. I wish the recipients all the best, keep up the good work. It is amazing how good news is of no importance to some, or maybe some just cannot bring themselves to comment on positive actions or a topic that does not provide the chance for gossip.
Well done ladies!
well done & all the best
Well done ladies, all the best. Bermuda needs more local doctors and nurses
