The need for nurses and other health care providers is so clearly evident.

In our country and around the world, we are seeing daily, unprecedented illness and deaths. We are also seeing significant death rates among African heritage and other people of color. MMPNO remains even more committed to increasing the number of African heritage nurses.

Our historic mission is to provide financial aid and scholarships to students of African heritage who pursue studies leading to careers in professional nursing.

Our scholarship recipients usually are working while in school, have families, and continue to maintain grade point averages above 3.5. They are the embodiment of resilience, compassion, and a desire to provide excellent nursing care to others.

Join us in our mission by becoming a member of the Mary Mahoney Professional Nurses Organization.
