About
University of Santo Tomas Nurses Association of America Illinois Chapter (USTNAA - IL) is a not-for-profit organization. Through the years, its main objective was to help develop the skills laboratory (skills lab) of UST College of Nursing to help its students develop the necessary skills needed, using up-to-date technology, that would help them when they graduate. USTNAA-IL also participated in multiple medical missions in some of the poorest areas in the Philippines and gave financial assistance to the college to support their different initiatives like the scholarship fund that helps pay for the tuition of exceptional students that needed financial assistance, purchasing a school bus, to name a few.
Recently, the organization started doing more community outreach here in Illinois. We partnered with Catholic Charities for their yearly health fair and support their Undy Sundy initiative. We also helped with Feed my Starving Children and Toys for Tots. Since we are a 501c3 organization, all donation are
tax-deduction to the full extent of the law.
