It is through our mission, we, the Board of Trustees, are driven to accomplish our vision.

 

MISSION..."Provide funding for grants and scholarships to advance orthopaedic nursing practice, research and leadership."

 

VALUES..."Advocates for lifelong learning, empowerment and stewardship."

 

Are you driven? Do you believe in our Mission? Do you support our Values? If your answer is "Yes," then we ask you for your financial support. The NAON Foundation is not a membership organization and relies on the financial support of NAON members and others to survive. We are grateful for those who supported our event at the Belle Mead Plantation in Nashville and turned their electronic raffle tickets into a donation...a big thank you! A donation of $50 or more enters your name on our "Brick" wall..."bricks for knowledge, walls for wisdom...." It is so easy to buy a "brick": Simply by going to our Web site, http://naonfoundation.org, and clicking on the "Donate" button. With 2015 rapidly coming to a close, right now is a perfect time to make a tax-exempt donation! Orthopaedic Nurses day is also rapidly approaching, why not honor a colleague or perhaps that special family member or physician with a gift to the foundation? We look forward to seeing your name on our Brick wall!
