Kathleen Ann Zepke Nursing Scholarship

Established by the family of Kathleen Ann Zepke, in her honor, to provide financial assistance to Macomb Community College nursing students. Kathleen entered Macomb’s nursing program as a non-traditional student, returning to school to pursue her dream of becoming a nurse. In 1986, Kathleen finished her associate degree in nursing and later completed a B.S.N. Kathleen enjoyed a fulfilling career for 32 years working as a nurse in Med-Surg, as an IV Nurse, and Operating Room Nurse Circulator in Michigan and Florida. Through this scholarship, the family and friends of Kathleen continue her legacy of compassion and service, helping future nurses achieve their educational and professional goals.
