Ten UW Green Bay nursing students were honored with scholarships this week.
The scholarships ranged in value from $2,500 to $5,000 and were provided by Aurora BayCare.
In total, Aurora BayCare has committed to more than $125,000 in scholarships to inspiring nursing for UW-Green Bay students and plans to fund the scholarships over the next four years.
The aid comes after an initial gift of support to help launch the University’s new Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program in 2019.
Heather Schroeder, vice president and chief nurse officer for Aurora BayCare said of the scholarships, “Providing this support at UW-Green Bay is just one way that we can invest in Wisconsin’s nursing workforce, and in the coming years, that investment will reflect in the excellent care nurses will provide for our community.”
