Bermuda Health Foundation To Hold Luncheon
On Friday, June 17 the Bermuda Health Foundation will host their 14th Annual Salute to Service Awards Luncheon, with the Foundation raising funds every year to assist Bermudian students who are studying for careers in the medical field.
This year, over 65 outstanding students submitted applications; to date, the Foundation has presented 39 scholarships totaling almost $400,000.
A spokesperson said, “In addition to the scholarship awards, the Bermuda Health Foundation will honour John Wight, President and CEO of BF&M Insurance Group with their Annual Salute to Service Award for his contribution to the insurance industry in particular and the Bermuda community generally. Mr. Wight is also the President of the Bermuda Chamber of Commerce.
“Because of his contribution to the business community in Bermuda, the Foundation is expecting a sell-out audience at this year’s luncheon.”
