ENStrong Fundraising Challenge

A donation to the ENA Foundation through the ENStrong Challenge is an investment in the advancement of patient care. Your gift will support scholarships and grants that are the fuel for emergency nurses to further their education and improve their practice, which ultimately benefits everyone.

What is the ENStrong Challenge?

The ENStrong Challenge is the ENA Foundation’s largest fundraising campaign of the year for supporting scholarships, continuing education, research and emergency support. The campaign begins during the ENA Leadership Conference in January and continues through May 31.

The Rules:

  • Individuals, ENA State Councils and State Chapters may donate on behalf of their state.
  • Each council will have a unique campaign home page it can use to collect donations and track participation.
  • States that raise $5,000 or more will have the opportunity to name a scholarship during the 2026 scholarship cycle. Gifts must be designated to scholarships at the time they are received.
  • Endowment gifts or gifts directed to other areas of support - such as research, endowment or impact funds will count toward your state's overall total, but not toward a $5,000 named scholarship.

Be sure to check out the ENStrong leaderboard to see where your region ranks in this year's Challenge.
