The OSF Saint Clare Auxiliary is now accepting applications for the 2021 Abbie Jean Gunning Memorial Scholarship and the Harold Morine Scholarship. This year, a total of three Abbie Jean Gunning Scholarships and two Harold Morine Scholarships will be awarded, at $1,000 each.

Abbie Jean Gunning was the first Auxiliary President. In 1960, the first scholarship in her honor was awarded. The Morine Scholarship is an award bequeathed by Harold Morine in 1981 in memory of his wife, Marilyn Morine, who was a nurse at Perry Memorial Hospital.
