The Elizabeth “Liz” Grabato Hollis Essay Scholarship

Honoring a Life of Compassion and Service

The Elizabeth “Liz” Grabato Hollis Essay Scholarship was established in memory of Liz Hollis, a beloved member of the WOGO family whose warmth, generosity, and adventurous spirit touched everyone she met.

Liz traveled with Women Orthopaedic Global Outreach teams to Nepal, Guatemala, Tanzania, The Democratic Republic of Congo, and Cuba, supporting the mission to expand access to orthopaedic care around the world. Her kindness, enthusiasm, and dedication to helping others left a lasting mark on the communities she visited and the colleagues who worked alongside her.
