A New Chapter: Partnership with the Varian Legacy Foundation
In 2026, the Monumental Nurses Ball™ entered a transformative new chapter through its official partnership with the Varian Legacy Foundation.
Founded by Nurse Haskins in honor of her late son, Varian, the Foundation was established to create pathways to opportunity through education, mentorship, health and wellness initiatives, financial literacy, scholarships, and community partnerships.
This partnership elevates the purpose of the Monumental Nurses Ball™ beyond recognition and celebration by directly supporting initiatives that create lasting impact throughout the communities we serve.
Together, the Monumental Nurses Ball™ and the Varian Legacy Foundation are committed to building a future where leadership, service, education, and empowerment continue to flourish for generations to come
