The NVHEF proudly gives scholarships to students who have an intention of returning to Northern California. Preference is given to any student who has graduated from a high school in the following counties: Butte, Colusa, Del Norte, Glenn, Humboldt, Lassen, Modoc, Plumas, Shasta, Siskiyou, Sutter, Tehama, Trinity, Yolo, & Yuba. In the past, the NVHEF has maintained and expanded several health-oriented programs. Through health fairs, speakers and other activities, we educated the public about their own health so they can lead longer and healthier lives. NVHEF are the leaders in establishing a fund to provide medical equipment to home-bound patients with limited funds. They've also began Kids on the Block, a puppet program that taught school-aged children about children with disabilities.
