A community in rural Canada has decided it needs a doctor so badly it is willing to pay to train one
“Residents in the town of Deloraine, near Brandon, have launched a Be-a-Med-Friend campaign to fund a scholarship for an aspiring doctor.
They hope to persuade 125 people to donate $10 a month to give a medical student up to $15,000 a year for four years.
In exchange, the recipient would be required to work in Deloraine for four years after graduating from medical school.”
