Two Ways to Honor a Nurse
Honor a Nurse Program: This program allows recognition of exceptional nurses. An “In Honor” donation sends a tribute card and honoree pin to the nurse, without disclosing the amount. Donations may be tax-deductible.
Annual Nightingale Tribute: Donations made in memory of a loved one send a personalized tribute card to the family, without revealing the amount. These donations may also be tax-deductible. Honored nurses’ names are included in the Nightingale Tribute during the INF Annual Holiday Gala & Fundraiser.
