The mission of the <strong>Kentucky</strong> <strong>Nurses</strong> Foundation (KNF) is to advance and expand nursing practice and the<br />
translation of evidenced based practice through clinicians, educators, leaders, researchers, healthcare policy<br />
makers and students to promote the highest level of health and well-being for all nurses as well as the<br />
citizens of <strong>Kentucky</strong>.<br />
The KNF, established in 1975 as a 501 (C) (3) status foundation, has both a contractual and professional<br />
relationship with the <strong>Kentucky</strong> <strong>Nurses</strong> <strong>Association</strong> (KNA), to enhance achievement of the strategic goals<br />
of both organizations. In keeping with the bylaws (2017), the KNF has a long history of supporting the<br />
endeavors of the KNA Mission.<br />
During our last fiscal year, donations to the KNF totaled: $55,188.68 from programs and support from Honor<br />
a Nurse – Remember a Nurse, “Love a Nurse,” Second Annual “Taste of Health” Fundraiser and “COVID-19<br />
Support <strong>Nurses</strong> Fund”<br />
