5.  An option exists this year to make a donation to the Nurses’ Alumni Association if interested. This is not an expectation but may be of interest to those who cannot attend but wish to contribute in some way. Please note that as we are not a registered charity it is not possible to issue a receipt for income tax purposes.

The business model of Zeffy relies on donations from users who buy tickets through their platform.  If you would like      to read more about this company please go to their website: Zeffy | 100% Free Fundraising Software . 


At the end of the check-out you will be prompted to make a donation to Zeffy.  At check-out the amount of donation to Zeffy is automatically set to 15%, however you are able to donate any amount or may choose to not donate at all.  Simply use the down arrow and use an alternate pre-set % amount or select "Other" and enter the  dollar amount you wish to donate. If you do not wish to donate to Zeffy at all please enter 0.0 


There is no obligation on the part of our alumni members to donate to Zeffy, this is entirely a personal choice.
