Event Description

Help us celebrate the 28th anniversary of the R.H. Daniel School of Nursing by going Red with us for American Heart Month. We are using this race to begin a Nursing Student Success Fund. The Nursing Student Success Fund will help nursing students cover the necessary costs of completing their program. With your support, nursing students can focus on their education, knowing they have the resources they need to excel in their training and their future careers. With the growing shortage of nurses, Piedmont wants to promote nurses and recruit future Healthcare Professionals to continue to support our community. Come run with us and see the beauty of all that Piedmont University has to offer!


Please reach out to hbarnett@piedmont.edu with any questions or for more information.
