A Legacy of Gratitude

In thanks to her nurses, Elizabeth chose to endow a trust with one purpose: giving back to nurses like those who made even her most difficult days bearable. Each year, the Elizabeth Street Scholarship Fund selects a number of current and incoming Yale School of Nursing students and pays a portion of their tuition and fees.
