The NaphCare Charitable Foundation, Inc., a nonprofit dedicated
to advancing the safety and wellbeing of communities through
research, educational programs, and scholarship opportunities,
today announced a donation of $20,000 to the East Valley Institute
of Technology (EVIT). EVIT is a premier public trade school
providing 50 career training programs to nearly 8,000 enrolled
Phoenix-area adults and high school students at two central
campuses in Mesa, Arizona.
The contribution from the NaphCare Charitable Foundation will
support EVIT’s Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) and Registered Nurse
(RN) programs by helping to fund the salaries of program
instructors. In addition to certificate programs, EVIT began
offering associates degree programs in surgical technology and
nursing in 2024. Additional degree programs, as well as
apprenticeships, are in development.
“Aligned with our mission, we’re proud to support the expansion
of the East Valley Institute of Technology’s incredible nursing
programs,” said Brad Cain, CEO, NaphCare Charitable Foundation.
“Developing new nursing talent is essential with the decrease in
the nursing labor market. We welcome the opportunity to play a part
in equipping students with the education and resources critical for
their career.”
“The East Valley Institute of Technology would like to thank the
NaphCare Charitable Foundation for its generous donation to our
nursing programs,” said Superintendent Dr. Chad Wilson. “EVIT plays
a vital role in developing Arizona’s workforce, especially in the
healthcare industry. This donation will help ensure we can meet
those workforce needs by providing quality education and training
in nursing.”
The NaphCare Charitable Foundation has contributed over $3.5
million to scholarship opportunities and other initiatives since
its inception. To learn more about the Foundation and its
