Providing nursing to those who have none.
Gretta believed that great things could be done through the acts of one. She regarded the potential impact of a nurse to be profound and inspired nurses to see their future as a boundless landscape of promise and possibility.
In honor of Gretta’s memory, The Gretta Foundation is devoted to embracing her belief in nurses and continuing her legacy by inspiring future generations of nurses to rise to their potential and make their own destinies.
