ARLINGTON, Va., May 12, 2023 ~ The March of Dimes, a leading nonprofit organization dedicated to the health of all moms and babies, has announced two recipients of its 2023 Nursing Scholarship Awards. Established in 1998, the award recognizes and promotes excellence in nursing and furthers the organization's commitment to ensuring moms and babies receive the highest quality of medical care.

The two recipients are Nina A. Juntereal, a PhD Nursing Student at University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, who is receiving the Margaret Comerford Freda March of Dimes Graduate Nursing Scholarship Award; and Corona Blakey, a BSN Student at University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, who is receiving the March of Dimes Undergraduate Nursing Diversity Scholarship. Both will receive a $10,000 scholarship supported this year by Pampers®, a March of Dimes partner for more than 25 years.

Karen Walker Johnson, interim CEO at March of Dimes said: "With hospital closures, inflation and burnout from COVID-19 further stretching our healthcare system, our country's infant and maternal health crisis continues to intensify. The need for nurses is at an all-time high in order to improve infant and maternal outcomes. We are honored to invest in advancing the careers of the remarkable nurses on the front lines dedicated to the very same mission."
