The Washington Respiratory Care Foundation (WRCF) with assistance from the Respiratory Care Society of Washington will be awarding scholarships in 2026 to students seeking a career in respiratory care. This award is for students who are currently enrolled in an Entry to Practice program in the state of Washington working towards earning their degree in Respiratory Care. They can be working towards either an Associates or Baccalaureate degree. This scholarship is not for currently credentialed Respiratory Therapists that are returning to school.

The WRCF recognizes the significant commitment that comes with an education in Respiratory Care, not only academically but also financially. The WRCF is committed to supporting continued student success.

We will be awarding $1,000 scholarships to deserving students with a desire to give back to their community and a willingness to serve. These awards will be presented March 10, 2026, at the Annual Pacific Northwest Regional Respiratory Care conference and Scientific Assembly at the Wenatchee Convention Center located at 121N. Wenatchee.
