The Marianne Vannatta Race with the Stars - A Great 5K and 1 Mile Fun Run!!

Who Does the Race Benefit?
The race promotes health and wellness in the community and raises money for the Elaine Masters Endowed Scholarship for graduate nursing students at Oklahoma City University’s Kramer School of Nursing. Our country’s nursing shortage is due to the lack of qualified educators and through our graduate program, we are addressing this critical shortage.

"The Elaine Master scholarship brings me a few steps closer to achieving my goal of earning a PhD in Nursing at OCU. I can now focus more on the curriculum and less on financial matters! Thank you all!"
Cynthia Shaw
OCU Kramer School of Nursing PhD Student
OCU RN-to-BSN & MSN Alumna


“During my course of study at Kramer School of Nursing, I was able to continue to working full time in oncology nursing. This allowed me to continue supporting my daughters financially, all the while the good people Oklahoma City University were supporting me. When I received the Elaine Masters Scholarship, I felt all of my hard work and commitment was recognized and rewarded. Thank you!”
Carrie R McCoy
OCU Kramer School of Nursing MSN Alumna
