The Future Nurses scholarship, announced last Saturday by CeraVe and Her Campus Media within the framework of National Nursing Day, becomes an extraordinary opportunity for 10 students of this career to obtain a $5,000 scholarship each, to make their life project a reality.

CeraVe, the leading skin care brand, and Her Campus Media, a successful media portfolio for college students and Gen Z, have established this alliance to support the dreams of the next generation of healthcare workers, a task that is not an outsider one for the dermatology company that has been supporting nurses since 2005.

“As a brand rooted within the medical community, CeraVe has long appreciated and supported the vital work of healthcare professionals, which has never been more profound or worthy of recognition than over the last few years,” said Jaclyn Marrone, VP of Marketing at CeraVe.

Marrone also noted:

In addition to the return of our digital docuseries, Heroes Behind the Masks, honoring current nurses, CeraVe is proud to partner with Her Campus to reach the next generation of nurses and reinforce CeraVe’s support as they embark on a future in this invaluable profession.

“My mom went back to college to get her nursing degree when I was in high school, and we graduated the same month. She now works at the hospital in my hometown and does so much to give back to our local patient population. She works so hard and puts her entire heart into her work. Nursing runs in my family. My grandmother retired after 30+ years as an RN working in the Operating Room assisting in surgery,” highlighted Windsor Western, Her Campus Media co-founder.

“I'm so inspired by all of these future nurses who applied for the scholarship and it was so hard to choose our winners. We originally were going to have five winners but after seeing our top ten, CeraVe decided to double their impact and give scholarships to all ten finalists! It means so much to be able to partner with CeraVe on the Future Nurses Scholarship. Our winners are going to do great things!” she continued.
