The scholarship was awarded to Angel Gonzalez, a Jack E. Singley Academy senior.
“At Lumin Health, we’re committed to making a difference in the lives of our patients and our community,” said Dr. Won. “Being a part of this scholarship program is just another way we can give back. We’re honored to recognize young people like Angel, who have great potential but may need a little help as they work to achieve their dreams.”
Here are five key notes:
