Jessica Edgar Memorial Scholarship

A Little about Jessica: 

If one were to Google the word service, there is no doubt that Jessica Edgar’s smiling face would be there as a shining example.

Jessica Edgar was a kind, funny, brilliant woman with a heart for service, especially the service of children. Jessica loved to travel, hike, and was an avid baseball fan. Jessica served as the Director of Medical Affairs for the Make-A-Wish Foundation for many years with a servant’s heart to help children outside of the clinical setting in a community that she had served for over ten years as a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner. Jessica also served on the board of the Arizona Chapter of the National Association of Pediatric Nurse Practitioners and was our President Elect. She was an active voice for Nurse Practitioners in Arizona and our pediatric population while working as our Legislative Chair. Jessica also served on the board of the Arthritis Foundation, an organization that was near and dear to her heart.
