Name: Cynthia McNerney Scholarship
Award Amount: $3,000
Information And Eligibility:
The Cynthia McNerney Scholarship is funded through Ms. McNerney’s estate and was established to support nurse anesthesia residents as they progress through the rigorous demands of anesthesia education. This scholarship reflects a lasting commitment to the nurse anesthesia profession and recognizes the dedication, perseverance, and academic excellence required to succeed as a future CRNA.
Preference is given to residents attending a nurse anesthesia program in North Carolina. The scholarship is designed to help alleviate some of the financial pressures associated with graduate-level anesthesia education, allowing recipients to focus on clinical training, academic achievement, and professional development.
Nurse anesthesia programs require significant time, focus, and personal investment. By providing financial support, the Cynthia McNerney Scholarship helps reduce barriers that may otherwise interfere with a resident’s ability to fully engage in their education. This award acknowledges the importance of supporting residents during training so they can emerge as confident, competent, and compassionate anesthesia professionals.
The scholarship honors Ms. McNerney’s legacy by investing in the next generation of CRNAs—individuals who will go on to provide safe, high-quality anesthesia care and contribute meaningfully to patient outcomes, healthcare teams, and the broader profession.
