CON RECEIVES $1.8 MILLION GIFT FOR NURSING SCHOLARSHIPS

MUSC College of Nursing has received a $1.8 million to fund scholarships for nursing students. The gift from Chuck Chitty of Chattanooga, TN, supports the established Marianne T. Chitty Scholarship that has assisted nursing students with a financial need since 2013. The scholarship was named for his grandmother and endowed by his parents, Mr. Charles Chitty and Dr. Kay Chitty, longtime supporters of the college. The donation will allow for increased enrollment in MUSC's nursing programs, allowing students to complete their degree at a lower cost. With over 600 students enrolled, the College of Nursing provides nursing education in undergraduate and doctoral levels. Mr. Charles Chitty with his mother, Dr. Kay Chitty. "We know that financial need is high for many of our students," said Linda S. Weglicki, Ph.D., R.N., dean of the College of Nursing. "Mr. Chitty's extraordinary generosity will allow us to continue to help future nurses fund their education so that they can begin the delivery of health care that is so desperately needed today." The bequest will benefit scholarships for nursing students and allow for robust and sustainable support of the College of Nursing's greatest scholarship needs. Including the MUSC College of Nursing in your estate plans, as Chuck Chitty has, is an incredible way to leave a legacy.
