A Deep Dive into Nursing Philanthropy
The American Nurses Foundation's groundbreaking report on Philanthropic Support for the Nursing Profession has unveiled a startling statistic: nursing receives merely one penny of every healthcare philanthropy dollar. This revelation underscores the critical need for significant and urgent investments in nursing to revolutionize our complex healthcare systems and care delivery..
Innovative Philanthropic Strategies to Support Nursing
In the second episode of our series featuring unscripted conversations with leading philanthropists, fundraisers, and healthcare innovators, we explore the creative and strategic ways foundations are investing in the nursing field. This episode focuses on engaging students as early as middle school to spark interest in healthcare careers, delivering education through the lens of health and education equity, and building the diverse workforce necessary to address current shortages and future demands.
