2021 Donor
“As I look back on my career, it was an exciting time in growing my confidence, learning and achieving many new nursing experiences that touched the spectrum of human life…. I truly fulfilled my career goals and will always be grateful to those who helped me along the way, like the nursing scholarship you gave me in 1988. So now I ‘pay it forward’ and look to help another worthy nursing student to achieve all that she can do.”
