In recognition of her academic achievement, Abby Friedman, a 2021 graduate of Beachwood High School, was recently awarded a $10,000 scholarship from Medical Mutual, a trusted insurer in Ohio for more than 85 years.

Ms. Friedman plans to attend Kent State University and major in early childhood education. She was among six regional winners of $10,000 scholarships based on academic achievement and financial need. Those scholarships, as well as 140 scholarships of $1,000 each, went to students in school districts across Ohio that are also customers of Cleveland-based Medical Mutual. The Columbus Foundation administers the program and received more than 550 applications for the scholarships.

“Abby clearly was a high achiever at Beachwood High School and is a deserving recipient of the scholarship,” said Rich Wallack, Regional Vice President, Northeast Ohio. “Medical Mutual is pleased to support her desire to make an impact in the education field.”
