The Degen Foundation is pleased to announce the opening of the first Grant and Scholarship cycle for 2013. The deadline is March 31, 2013.
Degen Foundation History
Arkansas’ first hospital, St. John’s, was founded by the Reverend George F. Degen, who in 1887, collected $500 from local merchants along Garrison Ave to rent a building as a place to care for the injured. We honor Reverend Degen and the efforts of so many to improve health care in our hometown.
