SBVC Health Science Reimbursement Incentive Fund

The journey to becoming a licensed nurse involves rigorous education, extensive clinical training, and the successful completion of the NCLEX licensing exam. While the NCLEX is a critical step in entering the nursing profession, the associated costs can be a significant financial burden for many students.

The Nursing Licensure Reimbursement Fund is designed to alleviate this burden by providing financial assistance to recent nursing graduates. Your generous contributions to this fund directly support students by:

1. Reimbursing NCLEX Exam Fees: The cost of the NCLEX exam can be a barrier for students already managing tuition, textbooks, and other expenses. Reimbursement helps remove this obstacle, allowing graduates to focus on their next steps toward employment in the nursing field.
2. Supporting a Smooth Transition to the Workforce: Licensure is required for nursing graduates to begin their careers. By reducing financial stress, the fund enables students to pursue job opportunities and serve their communities without delay.
3. Encouraging Equity and Opportunity: Many nursing students come from diverse and underserved backgrounds. The reimbursement fund ensures that all graduates, regardless of financial circumstances, can achieve their professional goals.

Your donation to the Nursing Licensure Reimbursement Fund helps our students turn their dreams into reality, empowering them to provide compassionate, high-quality care in their communities. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of aspiring nurses and the patients they will serve.

Thank you for your support!

SBVC Nursing Pinning Ceremony Fund

Your generous contributions to our Pinning Ceremony Fund help support a time-honored tradition that celebrates the hard work, perseverance, and success of our nursing graduates. The pinning ceremony marks the transition from student to professional nurse, a milestone achieved through dedication and commitment to excellence in healthcare.

Donations to the Pinning Ceremony Fund directly assist our students by:

1. Reducing Financial Burdens: Many students face significant financial challenges during their educational journey. Contributions help cover costs associated with the ceremony, such as venue rental, nursing pins, professional photography, and commemorative items, alleviating additional expenses for our students.
2. Creating a Memorable Experience: The pinning ceremony is a moment of pride and accomplishment, not just for the students but also for their families and loved ones. Your support ensures a dignified and celebratory event, reflecting the significance of their achievements.
3. Recognizing Academic Excellence: Funds also go toward awards and recognitions that honor outstanding achievements, leadership, and contributions to the nursing profession, inspiring students to strive for excellence in their future careers.

By donating to this fund, you are playing a vital role in supporting the next generation of nurses who will serve our community with compassion, skill, and dedication. Your support truly makes a difference in their journey and helps create memories that will last a lifetime.

Thank you for investing in their future!
