Ways to Support
Scholarship Fund
“Give a Man a Fish, and You Feed Him for a Day. Teach a Man To Fish, and You Feed Him for a Lifetime” HOWEVER, if you don’t provide a fishing pole, it hardly matters what’s taught.
The Nightingale Foundation scholarship program can provide the needed resources and is available to potential nursing students who need a financial solution to close the educational equity gaps that exist for underserved and underrepresented populations.
Perpetual Education Fund
Providing access to interest free loans is at the heart of how the Foundation is increasing access to educational opportunities for underrepresented populations and helping to expand entrance into nursing education across the country.
This program is made possible through healthcare partners and. Providers, as well as special donors who fund a nursing education seat. These loans are repaid and then redistributed, allowing the Foundation to continuously perpetuate the next generation of nurses.
Impact
Nightingale Foundation is working diligently to financially support nurses in every state from California to Florida. These financial solutions are removing the long-standing barriers to nursing education access.
Together we can improve the quality of care we all should enjoy by supporting nursing education and, finally, solving the nursing shortages in the U.S.
