Due to current visitor guidelines, we will not be offering the 2021 Freeman Student Volunteer Futures Program. Please check back for information on the 2022 program.
The Freeman Student Volunteer Futures Program is an eight-week volunteer program that provides students the opportunity to experience patient care situations. Whether you are exploring medical careers or just want to make a difference in the lives of others, we encourage you to apply.
Students will receive CPR training at orientation, experience an afternoon of simulations and learning at the Kansas City University of Medicine and Biosciences Joplin campus and enjoy many other optional learning opportunities throughout the program. Students completing the Futures Program are eligible to apply for a $500 scholarship to the college of their choice.
