In celebration of its 35 years of nursing regulatory success, the National Council of State Boards of Nursing Inc. (NCSBN) is donating $35,000 to the Girl Child Education Fund (GCEF). "ICN is sincerely grateful to NCSBN for its generous support of the Girl Child Education Fund," said David C. Benton. "Thanks to donations such as these we have enabled over 130 girls to complete high school; many of whom have gone on to tertiary education. By supporting these girls, the NCSBN is showing solidarity with their nursing colleagues in sub-Saharan Africa, whose harsh working conditions may threaten the livelihood and future of their children. We know that educating girls leads to better health for themselves, their families and their communities, and we thank the NCSBN for their generous gift." The donation will be presented during NCSBN's anniversary celebrations at its Annual Meeting and Delegate Assembly Aug. 14-16, 2013, in Providence, R.I.
