Pathway Programs
Pathways to Excellence in Medicine
This initiative seeks to utilize evidence‐based principles and the groundwork of a decade of experience to engage Philadelphia’s medical students, envisioning what their careers in academic medicine can look like and supporting them as they blaze the path toward realizing their potential as Philadelphia’s future physicians.
Eligibility: Medical Students

Educational Pipeline Program (EPP)
The mission of the Educational Pipeline Program is to provide mentorship and education at all levels: high school students are taught by undergraduates and graduate students; undergraduates learn from graduate students; and graduate students are guided by physicians. Further, the Pipeline Program provides a valuable means for college students, medical trainees, physicians-in-training and faculty at the University of Pennsylvania to contribute meaningfully to their surrounding community.
Eligibility: High School Students

ASPIRE Program
The ASPIRE Program at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania (HUP) sponsored by the Howley Foundation in partnership with La Salle University, is an enrichment program designed for high school juniors interested in pursuing a career in nursing. Upon acceptance as an ASPIRE Scholar, you will participate in a number of interactive experiences designed to expose and introduce you to the profession of nursing. After successful completion of the high school program, ASPIRE Scholars receive a stipend of $500. Following your high school senior year, ASPIRE Scholars will have the opportunity to receive scholarship funding to attend La Salle University to obtain a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree and also maintain part-time employment at HUP. ASPIRE Scholars will receive ongoing support and mentorship throughout their undergraduate program and employment at HUP. 
Eligibility: High School Juniors 

Hinkson Holloway Mentorship Program
The Hinkson Holloway Mentorship Program is a scholarship program for Black men in the Philadelphia Area who are enrolled or going to enroll in a Philadelphia University/College and intend on pursuing Medicine as their career choice. This program is meant to push students through academics, service, and leadership to support these young men in navigating the challenging journey to Medicine. The facilitators of this program will provide mentorship and advising with academic issues, including tutoring, career development, and college/career preparation in a safe, positive, affirming space.

Volunteer Opportunities
CHOP Wawa Volunteer Program
It takes a team to heal a child, and hospital volunteers are an essential part of that effort. Whether playing with children during waiting times, greeting visitors or helping families find their way through the halls, the volunteers at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) make a difference providing a special human connection that often eases the stress for patients and families going through difficult times. We have an array of volunteer opportunities available to support patients, families, visitors, and staff throughout the CHOP network. Opportunities include staffing the Wawa Coffee and Care Cart, supporting the patient and family experience, or assisting our nursing and child life teams. Volunteer placements are based on the needs of the hospital.
​Eligibility: 16 years and above
