Nurses are the backbone of the U.S. healthcare system. With over 4 million registered nurses providing care across diverse settings, they are trusted professionals who integrate the clinical, emotional, social, and psychological needs of patients.

Yet, despite their vital contributions, less than 1% of healthcare charitable dollars go toward nursing—a stark underinvestment in a profession that impacts every life. Investing in nurse leadership development in particular creates a ripple effect that benefits the teams they lead and the broader communities they support.

By funding ongoing education, leadership development, and mental health resources for nurses, we can strengthen the profession, drive systemic change, and improve public health outcomes. Nurses deserve more than gratitude—they deserve meaningful investment. Help us ensure aspiring, new, and current executive nurse leaders are equipped to meet today’s challenges, anticipate and plan for tomorrow, and transform the future of healthcare for all.
