hosted a Big Hat High Tea at the <strong>Nevada</strong> Governor’s<br />

Mansion to raise money for nursing scholarships and<br />

grants. Previous Big Hat High Tea themes include My<br />

Fair Lady (2015), Mary Poppins (2016), Mad Hatter<br />

(2017), Over the Rainbow (2018), Crowns and Tiaras<br />

(2019) and the Wild West Tea on the Comstock (2020).<br />

In 2020, the Tea was held virtually. The most amazing<br />

local entertainers donated their time and talent to<br />

deliver sensational performances. We had a virtual<br />

silent auction and had a wonderful raffle!<br />

The 7th annual BIG HAT HIGH TEA fundraiser will<br />

be in June 2021 and this year’s theme is Tea on the<br />

Comstock. Fingers crossed, prayers and good thoughts<br />

appreciated to actually be in the heart of the Comstock<br />

in June. More information will be announced soon!<br />

It is always the season to be…MERRY! Buy local and<br />

support local NV HEROES! We are grateful to Threads<br />

of eNVy for donating the proceeds to the <strong>Nevada</strong><br />

Nurses Foundation.<br />

Thank you Jessica Rasmaninana and Veloma Wolfe<br />

for being our <strong>Nevada</strong> student nurse models!!<br />

Raffle Tickets are 1 for $10, 4 for $20, and 25 for<br />

$100. Call or text us at 775-560-1118.<br />

In 2014, when the NNF was first established,<br />

Margaret Curley, Founding Member & past NNF/NNA<br />

Liaison, suggested we host a High Tea, Betty Razor,<br />

Founding Member & past NNF Treasurer, suggested we<br />

wear big hats, Ian Curley introduced our first Big Hat<br />

High Tea in 2015 and Darlene Bujold sang the first song<br />

in 2015.<br />

It is exciting to see the NNF grow, evolve, and make<br />

a difference in healthcare and the lives of our <strong>Nevada</strong><br />

providers. Every year since 2015, the Foundation has<br />

Kudos to <strong>Nevada</strong>’s Nursing School for conferring doctoral degrees to over 65 nurses during 2020.<br />
