Inspire future nurses through nursing conferences.

Opportunity shouldn't come at a cost.

For too many nurses, the financial burden of attending conferences puts career-shaping educational opportunities out of reach.

​

If we want a healthcare system that is truly diverse, equitable, and inclusive, we must remove barriers for those who’ve historically been left out.

​

Invest in the nurses of tomorrow by connecting them with the leaders, movements, and educational opportunities of today.​

How my scholarship made a difference.

"Attending the NCEMNA Health Equity Summit was a transformative experience. It gave me time to reflect, learn, and connect with others who care deeply about equity in nursing. It was a powerful reminder that when diverse voices come together, we don’t just share experiences; we spark innovation, build lasting connections, and inspire a future of inclusive, collaborative care."

“This event was incredible! Being in a space filled with leaders who looked like me and truly understood my journey was so empowering. As a nursing student of color, I felt seen, celebrated, and inspired. It reminded me that just showing up matters—and together, our voices can spark real change in this profession!”

“What truly stood out to me was the incredible lineup of speakers. Their stories were powerful, personal, and deeply motivating—each one tying lived experience to nationwide policy and advocacy efforts. I didn’t just leave inspired—I left equipped. Every session reminded me that nurses have the power to drive structural change, and I’m returning with a renewed purpose to champion health equity from the ground up.”

“Attending the NCEMNA Health Equity Summit reignited a fire in me. Hearing directly from nurses who are challenging systemic inequities reminded me that advocacy isn’t optional—it’s a responsibility. I left with a renewed commitment to uplift marginalized voices in healthcare and ensure my patients feel seen, heard, and respected.”
