Join in Betty’s Legacy & Make a
Difference for Women in Need
We offer scholarships & grants:
4-Year Nursing Scholarships
Just like Betty, we believe financial support needs to be something you can count on for all 4 years, so that you can finish what you started.
If you’re a nursing student (entering your freshman year) with a gap in financial aid, apply for a 4-year, $5K per year scholarship.
Grants to Bridge Hardships
Over the years, many families didn’t know how they’d make ends meet until Betty graciously gave the little she had, to help them survive and even thrive.
If you’re a family with a specific, tangible and dire need, apply for a hardship grant for help with money or materials to help you bridge the gap.
Career Mentorship
The foundation’s board consists of a highly accomplished & diverse set of professionals with unique expertise and counsel available.
If you’re a young woman starting your career, regardless of the industry you’re in, we offer training, development, and networking opportunities, free of charge.
Our Mission is Betty’s Legacy
The Betty Kiernan Foundation exists to further the life and legacy of Betty Kiernan, whose kindness and charity changed the world of those around her, especially the lives of young women and families in dire need.
