Our Support of Kids’ Chance of Georgia
Southern Neurosurgery is a proud supporter of Kids’ Chance of Georgia, an organization that provides scholarships to the children of Georgia workers who have been seriously injured, killed, or disabled on the job.
This cause is personal to our practice. Dr. Betsy Grunch was herself a Kids’ Chance of Georgia scholarship recipient – support that helped make it possible for her to pursue her education and become a surgeon.
Her mother, Betty Uriegas, was injured in the line of duty as a police officer. In her honor, Dr. Grunch established the Betty Uriegas Memorial Scholarship through Kids’ Chance of Georgia – continuing the same support that once changed the course of her own life, for another family facing a workplace injury.
