ST. DAVID’S NEAL KOCUREK SCHOLARSHIPS
Since inception, 616 students have received St. David’s Neal Kocurek Scholar scholarships to study medicine, nursing, physical therapy,
biomedical engineering and other health-related careers at Texas colleges and universities.
See the 2020-2021 Class of St. David’s Neal Kocurek Scholars here.
GOOD TIMES FOR A GREAT CAUSE
Toast of the Town is the fundraising drive for the St. David’s Neal Kocurek Scholarship Fund, and 100 percent of your gift is used to fund students’
educations. Now more than ever, we are reminded of the vital importance a strong healthcare workforce provides for the health and well-being of
our Central Texas Community. St. David’s Foundation Community Fund will match two-to-one all Toast of the Town contributions, tripling the dollars
awarded to the scholarship fund. Every dollar raised will result in three dollars towards a scholarship.
Dr. Neal Kocurek, the longtime President and CEO of St. David’s Foundation, was a visionary civic leader who understood our community and
cared about its future. As part of Dr. Kocurek’s legacy, this memorial scholarship fund was established to take his vision into the future by awarding
college scholarships to students interested in pursuing health-related careers from Travis, Hays, Williamson, Bastrop and Caldwell counties.
