25 points for three RN patches

For 25 points, you can get three RN patches. The original RN patches were designed by Mark Dion and J. Morgan Puett in collaboration with The Fabric Workshop and Museum, Philadelphia for the exhibition, RN: The Past, Present, and Future of the Nurses' Uniform, presented in 2003. The "RN" patch size is 45 x 55 mm or 1 3/4" x 2 3/16". Please see our full line of patches to the right.  

The wider patches are about
1 3/8" x 3 5/8" or 35 x 92 mm. Please specify your preference or "plain." To order additional RN patches, please add $1.50 for each extra patch onto your member donation and send us an email at info@nursingadvocacy.org to let us know how many patches you would like. (For instance, if you want 7 patches, you would make at least a $31 donation (unless you are a student, then start at $9 and add on). The first $25 includes 3 patches and the additional $6 is for 4 additional patches at $1.50 each).

Bulk orders:
10-49 patches = $1.25 each;
50 patches or more = $1.00 each.

Non-member pricing:
0-9 patches: $5 each;
10-49: $3.50 each;
50 patches or more: $2.50 each.

50 points: Nurse Action Figure

Donate $50 and receive a professional nurse action figure designed by Archie McPhee. It would ordinarily cost about $14 to have him delivered to your door, but he's yours free for joining. You can place him on your desk or give him to your sons, daughters, nieces or nephews--help lead a generation of boys and girls to dream about becoming nurses when they grow up. The Center's staff members have already seen a change in how their children think about nursing. (You'll instantly eliminate comments like "men can't be nurses.") You can order extra action figures or order them in bulk to take care of your shopping needs for all your kids' friends' birthday parties or your holiday gifts for kids and adults by clicking here. Help us change the image of nursing--one child (or adult) at a time.

 

50 points: Center's T-Shirt with our slogan

Donate $50 and receive a t-shirt with our slogan that reads: "When was the last time the media told you the truth about what nurses do?" In addition to have something cool to wear, you'll help to educate the world about the media bias nursing is struggling to overcome. And when you increase awareness about who nurses are and what they really do, you'll help to resolve the deadly global nursing shortage.

T-shirts are white with blue printing. Available in:

Kids Short Sleeve 100% Cotton 2T - 5T, CS-CL;

Fruit of the Loom Ladies Short Sleeve Ring Spun 1x1 Rib Scoop Neck Tee S-L;

Bulk discount: For 3 T-shirts or more, take $3 off the price of each shirt. For 10 shirts or more, take $4 off the price of each shirt.

Non-member pricing: Add $5 onto the price of each t-shirt.

You can add the price of the shirts onto your member donation or renewal and pay online--or if your membership is up-to-date in the past year, you can make the payment just for the shirts online. Be sure to email us at info@nursingadvocacy.org to tell us that your payment was for the shirts. And please let us know how many you would like and of what style (kids, women's, men's) and size. Thank you.
