The world is facing a historic nursing shortage, and too many brilliant future nurses are being stopped by money, burnout, and life barriers. This nonprofit exists so we can rise strong together ā before thereās no one at the bedside when we need them most.
WHO WE ARE
Stronger Nurse Stronger World is a Texasābased 501(c)(3) public charity (EIN: 33ā2498569), organized to reduce barriers for underāresourced aspiring nurses rooted in the belief that a stronger nurse creates a stronger world.
We exist to confront the global nursing shortage ā projected to reach up to 13 million nurses short by 2030 ā and the burnout, financial strain, and lack of support that push too many nurses out of the profession or keep aspiring nurses from ever starting.
Our ecosystem has two sister entities working together:
⢠StrongerNurse (forāprofit) ā builds the pathway for nurses and aspiring nurses: education, mentorship, financial empowerment, and holistic wellness tools (including Stronger Nurse Universityāstyle learning, workshops, and coaching).
⢠Stronger Nurse Stronger World (nonprofit) ā removes the barriers so underāresourced students can actually access that pathway: scholarships and wraparound supports for tuition gaps, books, uniforms, exam fees, childcare, transportation, mentorship access, financial literacy, and wellness support.
Together, weāre here to keep nurses ā and future nurses ā rooted, resourced, and rising strong.
