Mission Statement: "As a charitable organization, the American Nurses Association\California Foundation is focused on nursing education and leadership to include offering resources and opportunities to promote nursing voices at all levels and to provide a setting for its constituencies' professional and educational interests to be addressed."

 

​​

We believe opportunity shouldn’t come at a cost. For too many nurses, the financial burden of attending conferences puts career-shaping educational experiences out of reach. That’s where the ANA\California Foundation steps in—removing barriers and opening doors for nurses across California and beyond.

​

By funding access to professional and leadership events, we empower nurses to show up, speak out, and lead change. Because when nurses have the opportunity to connect with thought leaders, elevate their voices, and grow in community, they return ready to shape a more equitable, inclusive, and innovative future for healthcare.
