On July 20, 2018, Dr. KVK Murthy of Sleepy Eye Medical Center and wife Kamakshi Murthy presented the Sleepy Eye Healthcare Foundation with a $25,000 donation for the Murthy Medical Scholarship fund. Moneys from this scholarship fund will be dispersed, in increments, to scholarship winners over the next several years.
The Murthy Medical Scholarship is available to two high school seniors at Sleepy Eye Public School and two high school seniors at St. Mary’s Catholic School each spring. Eligible applicants include those who plan to attend college or technical school in a health-related area.
