ISNCC Launches Fundraising Campaign for Travel Scholarships to Attend ICCN 2020

For the first time, ISNCC is launching a Crowdfunding Campaign to provide travel scholarships for a limited number of nurses from low- and middle-income countries to attend the International Conference of Cancer Nurses (ICCN 2020) on 29 March – 1 April 2020, at Imperial College in London, UK.

This crowdfunding opportunity allows anyone to make a charitable donation in support of cancer nurses who may not otherwise be able to attend this prestigious international cancer nursing conference. ICCN offers a unique educational venue to gain knowledge about cancer diseases and treatment, symptom management, survivorship, palliative care, and policy issues, to name a few. It also provides an opportunity for nurses to engage with clinical colleagues, nurse educators, researchers and leaders from around the world, often identifying valuable mentors and/or making lifelong friends.

Crowdfunding has become a successful method for raising funds for worthy causes and this is truly an important avenue of support for our global oncology nursing community and the patients we serve. Please take a moment to visit the ISNCC GoFundMe Campaign as follows and help us to exceed our goal of raising $10,000:
