ENA state councils and local chapters wage a friendly competition each year in support of the future of emergency nursing. In fact, the ENA State Fundraising Challenge is the ENA Foundation’s largest source of funding! The Challenge has a new theme each year, and state councils and chapters plan local fundraising drives and events centered around the theme. States that raise $5,000 or more have the privilege of naming their own academic scholarship the following year.
From now through May 31, 2018, we will be accepting contributions that will go toward helping the best and the brightest achieve their goals.
