Phillips Beth Israel School of Nursing welcomes philanthropic support from friends and former students to help continue its role as a leader in nursing education. As state support of higher education continues to decline, the philanthropic investments made by our supporters are more important than ever.
Giving to the School’s General Scholarship Fund underwrites tuition and related costs (such as books and uniforms) for students with demonstrated financial need. The School’s Annual Fund provides unrestricted dollars and affords the Dean the flexibility of directing your generosity to those areas where it is most needed.
