When you support nursing scholarships, you’re investing in real people with real dreams.

Students who are balancing school, work, and family.
Students who are determined to serve others.
Students who just need a little support to make it across the finish line.

“The Nurses Care Scholarship allowed me to breathe a little easier during the final months of nursing school, as I balanced increased clinical hours and the accompanying rise in childcare costs for my four children. Beyond the financial support, this scholarship reminded me that I am backed by a larger community that believes in my potential and my future as a nurse. That encouragement meant more than I can fully express. I am deeply grateful to have been selected as a recipient, and I know this support played a meaningful role in helping me graduate summa cm laude. I am truly excited to begin my career as a labor and delivery nurse and will carry this generosity with me as I move forward!” - Anna Russell

“I am extremely grateful to the South Carolina Nurses Foundation for the honor of receiving the Nurses Care Scholarship. As a pediatric ICU nurse on the path to obtain my master’s degree and become a Family Nurse Practitioner, this scholarship has been instrumental in helping me continue my educational journey.

In the fast-paced and demanding field of nursing, financial support like this makes a huge difference. Being a recipient of this scholarship has eased the burden of graduate-level education and allows me to remain focused on growing in my career while balancing my personal and professional life. I am proud to be part of the most trusted profession and sincerely appreciate the Foundation’s commitment to supporting nurses as we advance in our careers and serve communities across South Carolina.” – Kendall Deas

Behind every scholarship is a future nurse who refused to give up - and a community that refused to let them.
