The Michigan Chiropractic Foundation (MCF) recently
donated funds to Palmer College to help recruit students
from Michigan through two new scholarships.
The Development Office assisted MCF President Mark
Limberg, D.C., with establishing the scholarship guidelines
for both the Gift Recruitment Scholarship and the
MCF Endowed Recruitment Scholarship.
The foundation has committed itself to starting the program
in the fall of 2009 by awarding the Gift Recruitment
Scholarship. It will do so each year until the endowed
scholarship is fully funded and awards can be given. Both
the endowed and gift scholarships will be advertised to
students on all three Palmer campuses.
“The MCF is an advocate for exemplary professional
training and quality care, and is proud to develop
scholarship programs for chiropractic students,” said
Dr. Limberg. “The foundation also will provide assistance
for chiropractic graduates interested in establishing new
practices in Michigan.”
When asked about the gifts from the MCF, Senior
Development Officer Lois Kundel said, “Palmer has a
number of students from Michigan attending each of our
three campuses. We are extremely grateful for these gifts
and truly appreciate the opportunity to offer the MCF
scholarships to prospective students regardless of the
campus they choose to attend.”
