Scholarships
The Dr. Greg Sutherland Scholarships were established in 2004. The scholarships are awarded annually at Puyallup, Emerald Ridge, Rogers and Cascade Christian High Schools. Bethel, Graham-Kapowsin, Sumner and Bonney Lake High Schools were added in 2008. Each recipient will receive $750.00. The scholarships recognize a past or present patient of Dr. Sutherland. It is to encourage graduates to continue their education and to place a higher value on the benefits of education and life-long learning.
The criteria for this scholarship is that the applicant must be a past or present patient, possess a positive outlook on life, their character, contributions to school, community and be an active participant in local youth groups or Para-church organizations.
Congratulations and keep smiling!
