The Foundation of the National Student Nurses Association (FNSNA)
was created in 1969 to honor Frances Tompkins, the Association's
first Executive Director. Organized exclusively for charitable and
educational purposes, the Foundation awards scholarships to qualified
nursing students. Members receive points for participating in NSNA. Scholarship
recipients are recognized during the Awards Ceremony at the Annual
NSNA Convention. These scholarships range from $1,000 to $5,000. Applications
will be available in January 2007. Visit www.nsna.org for
application and criteria details.
Contributions to the FNSNA are tax-deductible. Since 1974, the FNSNA
has awarded over $2 million dollars in scholarships to undergraduate
nursing students. The Foundation is organized as a 501 (C) (3) charitable
foundation. |
