Award Recipient

Alex Halonen

TD Aboriginal Nursing Fund Award – Baccalaureate

I am currently a second-year nursing student and am absolutely loving the program! I decided to join the profession of nursing because of the abundance of career pathways available, and the opportunity to have a positive  impact on  a diverse population during various stages of life! I love the idea that you get to hear different perspectives and life stories from every patient and are also pushed very hard academically to be a critical thinker and to stay up to date on current research! Currently, I am most proud of my achievements in school, earning high marks in the classroom and having confidence in the clinical setting, as I continue to work towards my bachelor’s degree!  I can’t wait for my third year of studies to begin, and to begin my career as a registered nurse in the coming years!

Giving Tuesday has become a global movement for giving and marks the beginning of the giving season for your favourite causes. Thank you for joining Canadian Nurses Foundation today as we celebrate our 10th annual campaign. Double your gift today!

We know that helping nurses and nursing students is a team effort. More qualified nurses, more nurse-led research, more nurses and nursing students supported with mentoring and proactive mental health programs and training – that’s the outcome of your support. This leads to a stronger, more robust healthcare system for Canada.

Your support today, on Giving Tuesday, empowers us to set ambitious goals, strengthen our resources, and show that our collective generosity fuels the next generation of nurses. Let’s make this year’s Giving Tuesday our most impactful yet, proving that our collective kindness can create lasting change.
