Last week, our Communications Manager, Dayna, had the opportunity to travel to Washington, D.C. for the GiveCampus Partners Conference!

The conference brought together professionals from across the U.S. higher education and fundraising communities to connect, share ideas, and learn from one another. It was a great opportunity to meet with peers, hear new perspectives, and explore creative strategies for keeping students engaged and building stronger connections with our community.

Dayna came back with plenty of fresh ideas and inspiration for how we can continue strengthening our communications, enhancing student engagement, and taking our fundraising efforts to the next level.

We’re always grateful for opportunities to learn, grow, and bring new ideas back to our work. Thank you to GiveCampus and everyone who helped make the conference such a valuable experience!

For years, PanCare of Florida, Inc. has been a valued partner of Gulf Coast State College, serving our students and community through its on-campus health clinic. Today, that partnership expanded with the creation of the PanCare Nursing Scholarship.

As the first healthcare partner to participate in the Florida Department of Education's LINE Grant program alongside Gulf Coast State College and the Foundation, PanCare's $10,000 gift was matched dollar for dollar, creating a $20,000 scholarship to support future nurses.

This investment is about more than financial assistance - it's about strengthening the healthcare workforce and creating opportunities for students who are answering the call to serve.

Thank you to Robert Thompson and the entire PanCare team for your continued partnership and commitment to the future of healthcare in our community!
