Bonnie Fang Foundation

The Bonnie Fang Foundation was founded in 2002 by Bonnie’s daughters when she passed from lung cancer. She made it her mission to provide help to those in need.

The Bonnie Fang Foundation (BFF) was established in 2002 to honor nurses who demonstrate the dedication and desire to deliver outstanding patient care and continue Bonnie’s legacy of giving to the community. Bonnie, who was a nurse, was a very passionate woman who cared deeply not just for her family and friends, but for everyone around her. She was an advocate among her peers, leading a successful campaign petitioning the California Nursing Board to allow foreign nurses to take their Board exams and receive their California licenses to practice as RN’s. Her compassion and drive to help those in need made a great impact on her daughters and they have made it their mission to continue her legacy.
