Goal Reached

Nurses are bravely facing the COVID-19 pandemic. During this time of containment and uncertainty, nurses are working directly with the sickest patients, leading our emergency departments, testing within our communities, and being reassigned to meet new challenges.

Nurses will continue to prevail in their efforts because there is nothing more valuable to our patients and families than the caring spirit that brings life into this world and escorts it into the next.

NFP has created a COVID-19 Fund for Nurses to enable the public to support and thank nurses. The state fund will address the identified, emerging needs of nurses and will focus on:

  • Providing direct financial assistance to nurses
  • Supporting the mental health of nurses – today and in the future
  • Ensuring nurses everywhere have access to the latest science-based information to protect themselves, prevent infection, and care for those in need
  • Driving the state advocacy focused on nurses and patients

Share your thanks and support Pennsylvania’s nurses. Make a donation to the NFP COVID-19 Fund for Nurses.
