Over the years, the Foundation has presented a series of educational symposiums for healthcare providers and Town residents on a wide variety of health topics, including preventative care, child and adolescent mental health, cardiovascular health, tick-borne diseases, cancer treatment, and the future of healthcare on the South Fork.

EHHF is grateful to East Hampton Library, Stony Brook Southampton Hospital, Guild Hall, East Hampton Village, and East Hampton Middle School for hosting our events.

A specialized scholarship program for high school seniors

Launched in 2023, the Foundation’s High School Healthcare Education Scholarship Program awards $2,500 per year to two graduating high school seniors in the Town of East Hampton who will be pursuing a healthcare education at a two-year technical school or four-year college.

Special consideration is given to students committed to working in healthcare in East Hampton Town after graduation. Interested applicants should visit their school guidance office for more information.
