Agnes G. Kirkpatrick Godchaux and Frank Godchaux III, BS’49
The Vanderbilt University School of Nursing received gifts this year totaling $6.6 million from the estates of Agnes G. Kirkpatrick Godchaux and Frank Godchaux III, BS’49, and Charles Godchaux, BA’52. These are among the largest scholarship gifts that the nursing school has ever received. They will support the Godchaux family’s endowed scholarships-the Elijah Nevins Kirkpatrick Scholarship and the Godchaux Family Scholarship-and will provide generations of nursing students with generous support.
“The Godchaux family’s ties to Vanderbilt span five generations, and the impact of their commitment and generosity will continue far into the future,” Vanderbilt Chancellor Daniel Diermeier said. “Their visionary support of the School of Nursing will support the education and training of advanced practice nurses who benefit their communities through their leadership, expertise and compassion.”
