The YULE is proudly raising funds to support the Saint John Regional Hospital Foundation. This year, the funds raised will directly benefit nurses and students by supporting their education and professional development through the Transforming Health Care Fund at the University of New Brunswick. Our donation will help provide the training and opportunities they need to grow as healthcare leaders, ensuring our hospital is equipped with the skilled professionals we rely on today and in the future.
In 2024, the event raised over $20,000, bringing the total to more than $41,100 raised over three years in support of this important cause.
“I am writing to express my heartfelt thanks to the generous donors that have provided me with the opportunity to enroll in the Leadership and Management in Health care Professionals program at the University of New Brunswick. I am currently completing the first 2 classes and the knowledge that I have already gained is invaluable. Your generous support is helping me grow both personally and professionally, and I am genuinely committed to applying what I learn to improve patient care and inspire others within my health care setting. I will carry the knowledge from this course throughout my career, making a lasting impact on patients and coworkers.
Thank you again for investing in my future!
Sincerely,
Krista Roi, BNRN, CpedN
