Everett McCreary Military Conference Scholarships
Before her death in 2015, Jean Carty-Turner, CST, CSFA, FAST, former AST Secretary and Director on the national Board of Directors, established a fund to benefit military members in honor of her father's service. In 2020, the Foundation's board voted to continue funding this scholarship indefinitely.
The Everett McCreary Military Conference Scholarship offers $1,000 conference scholarships so that AST members who are active, retired or disabled military and who have never gone to a national conference, can afford to attend AST's Surgical Technology Conference.
Applications are due February 1 each year. The application form will be available the previous fall, after details of the upcoming conference have been finalized.
