Claude Moore Foundation Gives UVA School of Nursing

The Claude Moore Charitable Foundation of Fairfax, Va., announced yesterday that it has awarded the University of Virginia School of Nursing a grant of $5 million for a planned school expansion that will include a new nursing education building. The grant represents the largest single gift ever received by the School of Nursing.

"Nurses play a vital role in meeting the health care challenges of our time," said University President John T. Casteen III. "With a facility that prepares nurses for the growing complexity of their profession, the University will make a significant impact on the care delivered here and around the globe. I am deeply grateful to the trustees of the Claude Moore Charitable Foundation for their vision, generosity, and continuing commitment to nursing and medicine at the University."

This marks the second time in two years that the foundation has made a major grant to the U.Va. Health System. In December 2003, the foundation announced a gift of $12.5 million toward the School of Medicine's new medical education building. Combined with this earlier commitment, the grant cements the foundation's philanthropic impact on the education of future generations of nurses and physicians at U.Va. The new buildings will be constructed across 15th Street from one another, within sight of the Claude Moore Health Sciences Library, providing clear visual evidence of the foundation's leadership in advancing health care education at U.Va.
