The Impact of Gifts
Jessica Avalos [left] received the Proud Eagle Nursing Scholarship, which allowed her to move from part-time employment as a barista to working as a nursing technician while she finishes her degree.
“I really needed it,” she says appreciatively.
“The Spokane housing market is so expensive, but this scholarship helped me to remain in stable housing while I changed jobs to work in my field.”
Brooklyn Parkey [right] graduated from high school in Spokane and enrolled at EWU. When she learned that Eastern would open the School of Nursing in the fall of 2023, she was excited that she did not have to transfer schools, and could remain an Eagle. Upon learning that she had been awarded the Proud Eagle Nursing Scholarship, Brooklyn recalls being excited:
“With a scholarship, I can work less and focus more on my studies,” she says.
