In response to the tragic earthquake, tsunami, and potential nuclear disaster in Japan, the American Nurses Association (ANA) sent out a press release encouraging its members and all healthcare professionals to support the nurses of Japan by contributing to the American Nursing Foundation’s (ANF) Japan Disaster Relief Fund.
The ANA is in contact with government and private agencies that are creating emergency response campaigns, and says that at this point, financial support is the most effective response.
The ANF is the charitable and financial arm of the ANA. The money donated will go to the Japanese Nurses Association to assist nurses who have been affected by the disaster.
