CVS Health Foundation Establishes $5 Million College Scholarship for Black and Latinx Students
The CVS Health Foundation today announced it has established a five-year, $5 million CVS Health Foundation Health Care Careers Scholarship program, in collaboration with UNCF (United Negro College Fund).
Scholarships will be awarded to Black and Latinx students pursuing an academic career in health care. The new scholarship program is part of CVS Health's nearly $600 million commitment over the next five years to address inequity faced by Black people and other disenfranchised communities.
"This scholarship will feed a robust pipeline of under-represented students, which will in turn strengthen the pool of talented college graduates ready for today's and tomorrow's workplace," said David Casey, Senior Vice President and Chief Diversity Officer, CVS Health. "Enabling students to excel in the workforce—particularly people of color and those facing financial barriers—advances our commitment to social justice and equity and will have a lasting impact."
