Pearl Moore “Making a Difference” Awards

The Pearl Moore “Making a Difference” Awards recognize individuals and teams who go the extra mile to impact the lives of patients with cancer and their families. Winners receive a $500 cash prize, a desktop award, and travel reimbursement to attend the annual ONS Congress®.

The awards are named for Pearl Moore, the first executive director and CEO of ONS. During her widely respected tenure, she inspired and mentored countless oncology nurses to provide unbeatable care and advocate for patients and their caregivers.

Moore believed that all nurses are leaders. As a result, these awards are intended to recognize emerging local and regional nurse leaders.

The nomination cycle will open in the spring with nominations due on September 30.
