Thank You

On October 15, 1978, a generous donor made a gift to establish the MGH Institute’s first endowed scholarship. This donor recognized and stressed the importance of interprofessional education, and of preparing health professionals to be leaders in their respective fields. This fall, on the milestone moment’s anniversary, we are honoring this legacy and continuing this tradition of student support by hosting Giving Day 2025.

Proceeds from Giving Day 2025 provide vital scholarship support, easing the financial burden as our students become leaders in their respective health care fields. Your generosity will help drive the momentum as our future graduates influence the future of healthcare - for all of us.
