Description

Bob and Valerie Valaas recognized the need for well-trained medical personnel in the Wenatchee Valley. Bob served on the Central Washington Hospital board of directors for many years, as had his father before him. They also had several children and grandchildren who served the medical community in a variety of roles including physicians, nurses, and radiology technicians. In 2007, Valerie established the Bob and Valerie Valaas Health Sciences Scholarship at the Community Foundation of North Central Washington to benefit students entering the Allied Health program at Wenatchee Valley College. Applicants must be a graduating senior or previous graduate from Wenatchee or Westside High School. Applicants must also demonstrate financial need and demonstrate interest and potential aptitude in the health field and concern for others. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Community Foundation of North Central Washington for more information.
