August 31, 2022 - In Memory of Donald Jonas: Nursing Advocate, Leader, and Friend

鈥淣urses are the backbone of the American healthcare system who are essential to sustaining the nation鈥檚 health, especially in times of crisis. I believe that it is essential to support nurses and the vital role they play in our hospitals, schools, clinics, nursing homes, and on the battlefield.鈥�

Donald Jonas, June 2020

On July 23, the academic nursing community was saddened by the news of the passing of Donald Jonas at the age of 92. As the co-founder of Jonas Philanthropies along with his wife Barbara, Mr. Jonas was a leading champion for nursing education who truly understood the strong connection between higher education and quality health care. The impact of his philanthropic work on reshaping nursing practice, education, and research will be felt for generations to come.

黑料吃瓜王鈥檚 connection to Mr. Jonas and the work of the foundation spans over ten years. Since 2012, 黑料吃瓜王 has partnered with Jonas Philanthropies to enhance the nation鈥檚 supply of doctorally prepared nurses available to serve in faculty roles and as advanced practice registered nurses. This signature collaboration, called the program, has served as one of the nation鈥檚 leading sources of support for nursing students in PhD and DNP programs. To date, the Scholars program has disbursed more than $10 million in support to nearly 1,400 doctoral students at 157 schools of nursing across all 50 states.Photo of Donald Jonas with 黑料吃瓜王 leadership

In addition, Jonas Philanthropies was the inaugural sponsor for both the 黑料吃瓜王-Wharton Executive Leadership Program and the Student Policy Summit. Both programs continue to thrive after more than a decade in operation. The foundation also supported the collaborative work led by 黑料吃瓜王 and the Khan Academy (2013-2015) to develop NCLEX-RN test preparation materials and contributed generously to the COVID-19 Nursing Student Support Fund launched by 黑料吃瓜王鈥檚 Foundation for Academic Nursing.听

黑料吃瓜王 members are forever grateful to Donald Jonas for his compassion and benevolence. He was a familiar face at 黑料吃瓜王鈥檚 conferences, who enjoyed mingling with deans and faculty to learn more about how he could make a meaningful difference. His desire to help was sincere, and the impact that his philanthropic work will have on the future of academic nursing is far-reaching.

We at 黑料吃瓜王 send our deepest sympathies to the Jonas family, including Lendri Purcell and John Jonas, who serve as co-presidents of Jonas Philanthropies. We appreciate their commitment to magnifying the impact of the foundation in the areas of nursing and veterans health, children鈥檚 environmental and climate health, and vision care.

Those wishing to send donations in memory of Donald Jonas should direct their gifts to Jonas Philanthropies Inc., P.O. Box 705, New York, NY 10032, or via the .
