We have a dire nursing shortage impacting care in hospitals at the bedside, in our clinics, public health care settings, and in the communities. We are in desperate need for nurses— both BSN and Advanced Practice Nurses. We as a School of Nursing need to increase enrollment in all programs while maintaining the quality of our graduates in order to care for the needs of our community.

Our college is asking alumni to support the Nursing Student Scholarship, the Nursing Student Emergency Fund, the Simulation Lab, and our Undesignated Fund. 

The Nursing Student Scholarship is a general scholarship available to all nursing students. 

The Nursing Student Emergency Fund helps students achieve their degrees when times get tough. 

The Simulation Lab provides hands-on experience to prepare students for their careers.

The WHSoN Undesignated Fund provides the WHSoN with funds they can use where they have the greatest need.

Your support will allow us to not only reward the best and brightest of our new and prospective nursing students, but to also step in and assist students who are experiencing financial burdens and other barriers that threaten their journey to a nursing career.

We need nurses more than ever, and your support will help us build the future of healthcare!
