National Student Nurses' Association

About Us

The Foundation of the National Student Nurses Association (FNSNA) was created in 1969 to honor Frances Tompkins, the Association's first Executive Director. Organized exclusively for charitable and educational purposes, the Foundation awards scholarships to qualified nursing students.

This year the FNSNA turns 50! To celebrate we are asking for your help to match a $50,000 grant provided by 3M™ Littmann® Stethoscopes.

​Contributions to the FNSNA are tax-deductible. Since 1974, the FNSNA has awarded over $4.3 million dollars in scholarships to undergraduate nursing students. The Foundation is organized as a 501 (C) (3) charitable foundation.
