2011 Dues Deductibility
The portion of your membership dues (ANA and ISNA) that is estimated to be lobbying expenses is not deductible as a business expense.
That amount for 2011 is 23.15%. Therefore, $209.80 (76.85%) may be claimed as a business expense if you itemize your 2011 Federal taxes.
Graduate Nursing Student Scholarship due February 17, 2012
The Spotlight On Nursing board of directors is pleased to announce the opening of our Graduate Nursing Student Scholarship application process for the 2012 award cycle.
In 2009, Spotlight On Nursing created the Graduate Nursing Student Scholarship Fund. Each annual cycle awards four (4) outstanding graduate nursing students $5,000 scholarships in exchange for their commitment to teach in Indiana. The first $5,000 awards were granted to four outstanding candidates in May 2010 to help them achieve their goal of becoming a nurse educator. Since such time, we have awarded a total of eight (8) $5,000 awards for a total of $40,000! Four (4) additional $5,000 scholarships will be awarded in the Spring of 2012.
