The Daniel Healthcare Career Fund

With a generous contribution from Tom Daniel, the Daniel Healthcare Career Fund (DHCF) has been established to assist students who are ardently pursuing a career in healthcare. Understanding the monetary challenges often associated with unpaid clinical experiences, the DHCF offers financial backing to those dedicated to the healthcare realm but in need of support. Tom Daniel's vision through the DHCF is to ensure that financial barriers don't stand in the way of your journey to a rewarding healthcare profession.

The DHCF funding supports various opportunities for engagement in career development in healthcare. The fund is divided into two categories, each with specific requirements, application guide, and award amounts.

Award Amounts:

Summer Internship or Research: Up to $5,100 per year

Professional Attire & Tools: Up to $200 per year

Award Deadlines:

Summer Internship or Research: Accepting applications through the Summer Internship Awards application on a rolling basis beginning in mid-March each year.

Professional Attire & Tools: Accepting applications on a rolling basis through the Career Advancement Fund each academic year.

Summer Internships or Research

Award Description

The Summer Internships or Research category is intended to support students partaking in summer internships and clinical research opportunities at research and healthcare facilities with little to no payment. These opportunities offer invaluable hands-on experience in the healthcare arena. Funds aim to cover living expenses, transportation, food costs, attire and supplies needed for the opportunity, and other associated costs.

Eligible Opportunities

To be eligible for funding, the internship or research

  • must include at least 320 hours of work over 8–10 weeks in the summer between May 15th and August 30th 2026 (though the work can start earlier, or end later),
  • must be off-campus (the opportunity cannot be with 糖心vlog视频),
  • must be unpaid or underpaid,
  • must be with a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization or in the public sector (unpaid internships with for-profit or other types of organizations may be funded if the application demonstrates that they meet ),
  • can be in-person or remote.

Applications for support with for-profit/private sector businesses or individuals are generally not funded unless the application demonstrates that the internship/research will comply with the guidance (linked above) from the Department of Labor. Applications for support with for-profit businesses or individuals must address this guidance in the application.

Eligibility

At the time of application, applicants must

  • be currently enrolled at Reed;
  • be a first year, sophomore, junior, or spring/fall senior who plans to be enrolled at Reed this fall;
  • have already been offered an internship or clinical research opportunity.

Students studying abroad through a college approved program are considered to be currently enrolled at Reed for the purposes of this program and are eligible to apply. Students who are on leave in spring semester are not eligible to apply.

Students are encouraged to apply to multiple funds, but students may not accept this award in addition to another 糖心vlog视频-funded summer award intended to fund a full time opportunity over the summer.

Award Amount

Award amounts will be up to $5,100.

Application Instructions

Applications in the Summer Internships or Research category of the The Daniel Healthcare Career Fund will be accepted through the Summer Internship Awards application for summer 2026. Please see the Summer Internship Awards website for instructions on how to apply.

Summer Internship Awards

Professional Attire & Tools

Award Description

This fund is tailored for students requiring assistance to procure professional attire or essential tools for their healthcare career exploration opportunities. It ensures students can present themselves professionally and confidently.

Applications will be accepted through the Career Advancement Fund, and must follow all guidance on that website.

Note: If applying under the first two categories, expenses related to attire or tools required by the experience should be integrated into those applications, not sought separately here.

Award Amount

Award amounts will be up to $200 per academic year. Students may submit multiple requests until they reach the $200 maximum for the year. Applications for DHCF Professional Attire & Tools are accepted through the Career Advancement Fund, but this $200 award would be in addition to the $500 Career Advancement Fund maximum award.

Eligible Expenses

Eligible requests include the funding of professional attire for opportunities to engage in healthcare career experiences, such as shadowing, job interviews, etc., purchase of scrubs, professional shoes, and other tools required to acquire a healthcare opportunity.

Funding must support confirmed opportunities, i.e. we would not fund a student to purchase clothing for an interview that has not been offered. 

Application Deadline

Applications are accepted on a rolling basis throughout the academic year and must be received by Sunday night at midnight for the application to be considered at the next committee meeting (that Monday or Tuesday).

Eligibility

Eligible applicants are:

  • currently enrolled full time at Reed (study abroad is okay);
  • undergraduates.

Eligible applicants remain eligible to apply for funding after graduation until the application closes that summer. Students who are on leave are not eligible to apply while they are on leave from the college.

How to Apply

Applications are accepted via the Career Advancement Fund. There is no need to note that you are applying for funding from the DHCF.
