Ian Engerbretson

“I don’t know how medical school would have been possible without scholarships,” says Ian Engerbretson. “For a long time, I’ve dreamed about becoming a doctor in a rural area to help solve the physician shortage. My whole family and I are so grateful for the gift of scholarships, which are helping to bring this dream to fruition.”
