Name a Future Healer Scholarship
Honor a Legacy. Launch a Future.
A gift of $10,000 funds one NWOF scholarship for a future osteopathic physician. Your gift may be made today or pledged over five years.
A named scholarship is a meaningful way to honor a physician, mentor, loved one, clinic, family, community, or personal legacy while helping reduce financial barriers for osteopathic medical students. Together, we can invest in the next generation of osteopathic physicians preparing to serve Oregon and communities across the Pacific Northwest.
Name a Scholarship. Empower a Future DO.
Osteopathic medical students are preparing to serve patients, families, and communities with whole-person care. Through the Name a Future Healer Scholarship program, donors can create a named scholarship that reflects their values, honors someone meaningful, and helps launch the next generation of osteopathic physicians.
With a $10,000 commitment, you can fund one named NWOF scholarship. Gifts may be made in full or pledged over five years, making it possible for individuals, families, clinics, practices, and community partners to participate in a lasting and meaningful way.
Named scholarships may honor a physician, mentor, loved one, clinic, family, community, or commitment to rural, underserved, or whole-person care.
