Help provide a white coat for a future and be part of a moment they will remember forever.

Every nurse remembers the first time they put on a white coat. It represents compassion, responsibility, hope and the calling to care for others during life’s most vulnerable moments.

Through the White Coat Campaign, alumni and friends of the University of Florida College of Nursing are helping incoming nursing students begin their first clinical rotations with confidence and pride.

At just $35 per coat, your gift directly supports a student taking their first step from the classroom into patient care while reminding them an entire Gator Nursing community believes in them.

Help welcome the next generation of Nurse Leaders and make an immediate impact today.

Accelerated BSN hit the ground running during their first weeks at UF College of Nursing, touring all three Gainesville campuses of UF Health: UF Health Shands Hospital, UF Health Cancer Hospital and UF Health Heart and Vascular Hospital.

Led by hospital nurses, the two-hour tours gave students an inside look at units such as pediatrics and the adult burn unit while helping them become familiar with the hospitals where they may complete future clinical experiences. From learning campus layouts to exploring patient care spaces, students gained an early introduction to the fast-paced clinical environments they will soon join.

Help provide a white coat for a future and be part of a moment they will remember for the rest of their life. Every nurse remembers the moment they first put on a white coat. It is more than a uniform. It represents compassion, responsibility, hope and the calling to care for others during life’s most vulnerable moments.

Today, you can help create that moment for a future Gator Nurse! Through the White Coat Campaign, alumni and friends of the University of Florida College of Nursing are coming together to provide white coats for incoming nursing students as they begin their first clinical rotations.

At $35 per coat, every gift directly supports a student stepping from the classroom into patient care. More importantly, it reminds students that an entire Gator Nursing community believes in them.

Join us in welcoming the next generation of nurses and help make their first step into patient care one they will never forget.

Today, as we wrap up our celebration of Nurses Week, we celebrate the stories, experiences and moments that inspire future nurses to answer the call to care. 💙

Incoming UF College of Nursing Accelerated BSN student Devyn Bernstein shared how a compassionate caregiver helped shape her path into nursing: “She became a part of our family. She really embodied what I think a nurse is and what I want to be.” Stories like Devyn’s remind us that nursing is rooted in empathy, human connection and the profound impact caregivers have on patients and families every day.

We’re proud to celebrate these future as they begin their journey to care, lead and inspire boldly.
