The American Heart Association, in partnership with Macy's and as part of its "Go Red For Women" awareness campaign, is offering scholarships to multicultural women interested in healthcare careers.
Sixteen women will each receive a $2,500 scholarship to help them in their studies. The program is designed to increase the diversity among nursing and medical students and increase cultural competence in healthcare.
