It is with regret, the Pocono Foundation must reschedule the 4th Annual Celebration of Pocono EMS Heroes to a later date. This precautionary step helps ensure the health and safety for all. The Pocono Foundation is actively working to reschedule the event, and will provide details as they become available. Thank you for your understanding, and continued support.

The purpose of the Dr. Peter Favini Scholarship is to encourage EMTs to further their education and give Monroe County additional Paramedics. The fund was established with the Monroe County Ambulance association in cooperation with Dr. Peter Favini in 2009. Dr. Favini has assisted in establishing the fund by matching the contributions made through fund raising efforts. This was the first step in making advanced training possible for those who could not afford to pursue their ...goals. Dr. Favini has consistently donated towards the fund and has overwhelmingly contributed to its success. We continue to face a tremendous shortage of Paramedics in the county, so we would like to thank Dr. Favini for continuing to make this possible for the students and the organizations within Monroe County. Please join us in congratulating the 2019 scholarship recipients! Rachel Birk- EMT with St. Luke’s Emergency and Transport Services. Rachel Brady, EMT with Pocono Mountain Regional EMS, and West End Community Ambulance Association. Joshua Lutz, EMT with St. Luke’s Emergency and Transport Services, and West End Community Ambulance Association. Jennifer Reader, EMT with Pocono Mountain Regional EMS. All of the recipients will be attending the Paramedic Program at the George E. Moerkirk Emergency Medicine Institute. It is great to see that amidst different acquisitions and new opportunities, that all organizations are continuing to work together in order to achieve the overall goals for our providers and communities.
