NIC Scholarship Foundation

Investing in the next generation of healthcare leaders — because when nurses rise, communities thrive.

Supporting Healthcare Professionals on Their Educational Journey

The NIC Scholarship Foundation supports aspiring and current healthcare professionals in pursuing their educational goals. Our scholarships help cover tuition, training, certifications, and continuing education costs for nursing students, CNAs, LPNs, RNs, and other healthcare professionals committed to serving their communities.

Healthcare professionals sacrifice so much for the people they serve. Too often, financial barriers stand between a dedicated nurse and the advanced education they need to grow, lead, and make an even greater impact. The NIC Scholarship Foundation exists to remove those barriers — one scholarship at a time.

Rooted in NIC's mission to connect, celebrate, and empower healthcare professionals worldwide, the Scholarship Foundation reflects our belief that investing in nurses and healthcare workers is investing in the health and future of every community they serve.
