Delaware Institute for Healthcare Education Advancement

Organization Mission:

Our mission is to encourage Delawareans to pursue education in healthcare by giving scholarships to each winner to spend anyway they want especially on self-care.

Our 2026 goal is to provide $150 to 11 scholars. Help us achieve the goal of $1650.



What can your $150 do for students in healthcare:

$150 can buy a Monday morning coffee every week for a semester. 

$150 can buy gas for a daily commute for a month. 

$150 can buy a $5 lunch at the cafeteria every day for a month. 

$150 can buy 2 sets of scrubs. 

$150 can buy a pair of supportive work shoes. 

$150 can buy 6 months of Netflix

** calculation based on $5.25 for coffee and $3.25 per gallon for gas and mileage at 28mpg


About Delaware Institute for Healthcare Education Advancement

The Delaware Institute for Healthcare Education Advancement (DIHEA) was founded and funded by clinicians in Delaware. Our mission is to inspire Delawareans to pursue education in healthcare. 

In 2025, eleven outstanding scholars have each been awarded funding to help offset the real-life costs of pursuing a career in healthcare. From transportation and uniforms to licensure testing fees and even that much-needed cup of coffee, these awards are designed to meet students where they are—on their terms.

Our scholars embody resilience, compassion, and dedication as they pursue their journey to become the healthcare providers of tomorrow.   We eagerly look forward to having them as a colleague in healthcare and serving the communities of Delaware.
