Congratulations to the following 2025 Chapter Scholarship Winners!
Thanks to the continued generosity of the Virginia Nurses Foundation and the support of our VNA chapters, we have awarded a total of $17,000 in scholarships to prelicensure nursing students across the state.
This financial support plays a vital role in helping future nurses advance their education and reach their goal of becoming registered nurses. We are proud to invest in the next generation of nursing professionals and grateful to everyone who made this
year's program such a success.
