Requesting $300000

charity

We are incorporated under the Health Professions Act as a registered charity, which means we raise, manage, and disburse educational and research funding for nurses. There are over 65,000 nurses in Alberta who are eligible to apply for this funding.

Every day, Alberta nurses face life-and-death moments. They respond with skill, compassion, and courage—but they can’t do it alone.

ANET empowers nurses to grow their knowledge and skills through grants and scholarships, supporting:

  • Workshops and conferences
  • Specialty courses in cancer care, critical care, emergency, neonatal, pediatric, mental health/addictions or operating room nursing
  • Advanced skills like cardiac life support and pediatric advanced life support
  • Graduate and doctoral programs to become nurse practitioners, educators, administrators, and researchers

With Alberta facing a shortage of nurses, your support ensures nurses are prepared to teach, lead, and advance research that improves patient care across the province.

Access to primary care is limited—1 in 4 Albertans don’t have a family doctor. Nurse practitioners help fill that gap. By funding their education, you’re helping nurses step into critical roles and expand access to care.

Your gift helps nurses save lives, innovate, and provide the care Albertans rely on—every hour of every day.

Give nurses the support they need to give patients the care they deserve.
