Special Campaigns
The Western Pennsylvania Hospital Foundation’s Touching Tomorrow Capital Campaign has successfully raised $8.7 million. Approximately $6 million will be used to renovate the historic School of Nursing building.
Thanks to generous contributions from donors, the 83-year-old building is in the process of being transformed into a welcoming, modern environment that will benefit students and the community for years to come.
Along with many structural improvements to the school, current nursing students are already benefiting from the construction of new classroom space. The Simulation Teaching and Academic Research (STAR) Center, located on the first floor of the School of Nursing, is a state-of-the-art facility featuring computerized mannequins that breathe, bleed, cough and allow students to perfect their skills in a simulated clinical environment.
These changes are the first of many that will help The Western Pennsylvania Hospital School of Nursing attract, retain and serve future nursing students, as well as Temple University medical students, and nursing faculty from both West Penn Hospital and Clarion University of Pennsylvania.
Thank you for contributing to the success of the Touching Tomorrow campaign and for your continued support.
To make a gift to this campaign, pledge here.
