Stand with future Columbia nurses
At Columbia Nursing, we believe in the power of nurses to improve lives and strengthen health systems. Since 1892, we have graduated over 14,000 nurse leaders who are shaping the future of healthcare. Today, that mission is strengthened by faculty and student research promoting better health outcomes—supported in part by our new Nursing Research Fund.
Give to the heart of health for all.
From our Global Fellows program to our research centers, Columbia Nursing continues to improve the global well-being of individuals, families and communities. Your support ensures our graduates are prepared to lead with skill, compassion, and purpose.
Your Gifts Impact Our Success
Graduating Nurse Leaders
Approximately 80 percent of our students receive financial aid. Your gift to the Scholarship Fund expands education opportunities, reduces obstacles to enrollment, and makes a Columbia Nursing education accessible for exceptional students. Through the Dean's Discretionary Fund, you make possible initiatives like the Pathways to Leadership and Advancement in Nursing (PLAN) program, which equips students with the tools to excel while allowing Dean Lorraine Frazier to respond to their most pressing needs.
Knowledge That Transforms Care
Make your gift to the Nursing Research Fund and ensure we can address real-world challenges and advance solutions to improve the delivery of patient care.
Creating Global Citizens
Since 2015, our global fellowships have offered more than 300 nursing students a transformative experience. Each year, 40-50 fellows are selected through a competitive process to participate in a six-week clinical practicum, immersing them in diverse healthcare systems.
Your gift to the Global Fellows Fund covers airfare and travel expenses, making this invaluable opportunity possible. Contributions enable students to explore nursing practices abroad and develop effective models of care—an experience that will profoundly inform their future work.
