NWTC Nursing graduate Dani Mayer
has been with HSHS St. Vincent for
the past 20 years.
“I don’t even know why, I just thought it was a sign from
God,” Mayer said. “Like, oh, God is giving me this. I need
this at this point in my life.”
Mayer received a $1,000 scholarship, giving her more
time to focus on her studies instead of worrying how
she was going to make ends meet.
“That was a huge financial burden lifted,” Mayer said.
“That’s quite a bit of money for a student. It all went
right towards the books and the next semester. That
was pretty huge.”
