I encourage each and every one of you to support nursing and help us reach our $3.5 million goal by donating an engraved paver to the Brick Paver Campaign for Nursing Excellence. We are very close to reaching our goal, thanks to the generous support of more than $3 million we have received from members, chapters, and corporate and foundation friends. If you have already donated, please consider making another gift as a wonderful way to recognize someone special and make a difference. Thank you!

— President Carol J. Huston, RN, MSN, DPA, FAAN

As of May 2009, honor society chapters had contributed more than US $181,000 toward their goal of $200,000. Additional gifts are needed by 1 August to ensure the goal is met. Chapters may have paver contributions deducted from their September 2009 disbursement checks.

Get VIP treatment
Individuals and chapters that contribute to brick pavers between 5 May and 1 August 2009 will be entered into a drawing to receive VIP seating during Plenary Session III, featuring Greg Mortenson, at the 40th Biennial Convention. Four seats, for two individuals and representatives of one chapter, will randomly be selected by 1 September.  

Donate today!
Paver contributions of US $500 or more, received on or before 1 August, will be recognized on 1 November as part of a special campaign celebration at honor society headquarters during the convention in Indianapolis. Brick paver contributions may be made via the foundation’s secure online-giving form by completing a contribution form or by contacting foundation staff at foundation@stti.iupui.edu, 1.888.634.7575 (U.S./Canada) or +1.317.634.8171 (international).
