JCC Establishes Mark Davis Paramedic Scholarship
The Mark Davis Memorial Scholarship has been established at Jefferson Community College through the JCC Foundation. The scholarship will be awarded to a second-year student in the JCC Paramedic Program who is also an EMS volunteer in the north country.
Mark was a student in the Paramedic program at the time of his death and a volunteer with Cape Vincent Fire Department and TIERS.
A selection committee will review applications and essays submitted by candidates to determine the scholarship recipient for that year.
Checks for the Mark Davis Memorial Scholarship should be made out to "JCC Foundation" with "Mark Davis Scholarship" in the memo section.
