Help Raise Funds for the Elaine Hill Memorial Nursing Scholarship!Social Media Fundraising Tool Kit
Thank you for agreeing to help raise funds for the Elaine Hill Memorial Nursing Scholarship!
Nurses are the backbone of our healthcare system.
- There is currently a need for 3.4 million nurses in the US according to the American Nurses Association.
- Retirement is outpacing new entrants to the field, as nurses experience increased burnout related to the pandemic.
- 34% of nurses say it is very likely they will leave their roles by the end of 2022.
Supporting nursing education is more important than ever. In fact, the reality is this: it is a matter of life and death.
Couple these sobering facts with soaring tuition costs and we have the recipe for a crisis. Let’s support nursing students– the people with a passion for healing and helping.
