Reflecting on Success: Highlights of 2023 from the Executive Director's Perspective
Happy New Year!
Reflecting on our journey throughout 2023, our collective dedication and resilience have propelled us to significant milestones.
In particular, our two research luncheons achieved remarkable success, selling out in record time and meeting our fundraising goals.
Our generous donors and partners support allowed us to provide funding to over 1,000 nurses in their continuing and advanced education and research endeavors.
Additionally, we welcomed three new members to our Board, and our holiday campaign featuring stories from nurses and patients was a resounding success!
As we look ahead to 2024, we are excited to take on new challenges and sincerely thank you for your support as donors, partners, and recipients.
Warm regards,
Marilyn Wacko, RN
Executive Director
