EL PASO, Texas (KVIA) -- A student at the Hunt School of Nursing at Texas Tech Health El Paso received the first ever full-tuition scholarship from the GECU Foundation.

Zahira Lozano was surprised as the recipient at a luncheon earlier today.

Her journey into nursing hits home -- after her mother was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease.

This scholarship is part of a $100,000 donation aimed to support nursing education and address the critical nursing shortage in our area.
