A contribution to the AORN Foundation, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, is more than a donation – it is a vital investment in the journey to improve nursing excellence and patient safety. Together, we can change lives, but we need your support.

Donate your birthday to support the AORN Foundation mission. To celebrate, support a cause you love and help save lives — ask your friends and families for donations instead of gifts.

By partnering with the AORN Foundation, corporations show their support of perioperative nurses and the critical role they play in patient and worker safety.

To continue advancing important initiatives, we need your help. The AORN Foundation relies on your commitment to work together.

Supporting the Nurses Who Make Surgery Safe

When we support the dreams and goals of nurses, they remain passionate about providing quality patient care that saves lives. The mission of the AORN Foundation is to empower perioperative nurses in advancing patient and workplace safety through education and research.

Nurses of color can advance their nursing careers with financial support from the Barba Edwards Scholarship through the AORN Foundation: Continuing a Legacy of Service.
