Maggie Baumann Memorial Scholarship
The Maggie Baumann Memorial Scholarship was established to honor Maggie's legacy by supporting high school students with congenital heart disease who aspire to pursue post-secondary education in the healthcare field. Maggie was a CHD warrior herself and had a passion for healthcare education and patient advocacy. Throughout her life she helped support and create new opportunities for the congenital heart disease patients in her community including, the first Adult CHD patient camp day at Camp Joy. Maggie’s compassionate, loyal, and tenacious spirit is deeply held amongst her family and friends. With the support of CHAoC, her family and friends, Maggie’s legacy will continue through this scholarship by continuing to support the CHD community.
