Riverview Health Foundation Awards Students with the Dr. and Mrs. Malcom Bray Medical Scholarships

Riverview Health Foundation is pleased to announce it has awarded the Dr. and Mrs. Malcom Bray Medical Scholarship to six deserving Hamilton County students.

The students from the 2020-2021 school year who have received the scholarship include: Alison Casey, Fishers High School; Maria Mitchell, Hamilton Heights High School; Natalia Morzhova, Hamilton Southeastern High School; Evan Augspurger, Noblesville High School; Lillie Dickerson, Sheridan High School; Kiley Phillips, Westfield High School.

“We’re proud of each student who has earned the Dr. and Mrs. Malcom Bray Medical Scholarship this year, especially it being such a unique school year due to the pandemic,” said Megan Wiles, Executive Director of Riverview Health Foundation. “The philosophy of Dr. Malcom Bray and Mary Bray was to share the blessings they had received in life by giving back to the community. It’s an honor to carry on their legacy and support those that will hopefully also serve their communities one day through their medical careers.”

The Dr. and Mrs. Malcolm Bray Medical Scholarship was established in 1993 through Riverview Health Foundation and is awarded to a graduating senior from each of the public high schools in Hamilton County wishing to pursue a career in the medical field. Each recipient is awarded a onetime $1,000 scholarship. More than 175 scholarships have been awarded to students since its inception.

The Brays’ support of Riverview Health runs deep. Dr. Bray was a scientist at Eli Lilly and Co. and a member of Riverview Health Foundation Board of Directors for 18 years. Mary Bray volunteered at Riverview Health for more than 40 years and her great-grandfather was instrumental in relocating Riverview Health to its current location.
