HIGH SCHOOL
SCHOLARSHIPS
The John C. Fremont Hospital Foundation awards scholarships to local high school students near the end of their senior year. The Foundation organizes this with Mariposa County High School's Counseling Office, but graduating seniors from other local schools are also welcome to apply.
The Foundation's mission is to strengthen the rural communities of the John C. Fremont Healthcare District to maximize health through partnership and philanthropy. The education of young people is a key element to strengthening our rural communities.
This scholarship is for students with financial need who are planning to pursue a certification or degree in any medical field related to people (ie, not veterinarian).
Although the Foundation prioritizes applicants who plan to provide health services in Mariposa County, we will also consider students who are attending 4-year colleges with a stated healthcare major or intent to go on to medical school. The Foundation will award up to three $1,000 scholarships this year.

The John C. Fremont Hospital Foundation awarded Infant Child Enrichment Services (ICES) $2,000 for its 2025 annual training event for all levels of childcare providers in Mariposa County. ICES’ training provides support for complying with state regulations, including health programming, as well as advancing further learning on early childhood education. In particular, an essential goal of their off-site training retreats is to help retain existing providers and encourage new providers to get their license, thus increasing the quality and capacity of childcare in our county. Childcare providers (pictured above) participated in a craft workshop. They picked up new ideas and skills, and had a great time doing it!

Healthcare District Improvement
Healthcare District Improvement
The JCF Hospital Foundation is continually seeking to support the adequate operation, maintenance, and modernization of Healthcare District facilities, ultimately aiming to enhance patient care and quality outcomes.
The Foundation Board works with the Healthcare District Board of Directors and/or the Healthcare District CEO. They determine priorities on an annual basis and relay them to the Foundation's Giving Committee. For any given fiscal year, the requests from the Healthcare District are consistent with the priorities set. The criteria under which funding requests are reviewed include:
Demonstrating buy-in from relevant staff (such as physician support for a telemedicine program).
Need relative to other hospital needs
Estimate of the number of patients served or potential for patient benefit
Sustainability of the project/maintenance of the equipment long-term
Budget size and cost justification
These grants are only open for application by the John C. Fremont Healthcare District CEO or designee.
