By donating today, you will help build a future where the physician population reflects the patients we serve. The goal of the WSMA Foundation Scholarship and Diversity Advancement Fund is to build a more diverse physician population in Washington state by supporting students who are underrepresented in medicine.

We will do this by covering full in-state tuition for four years of medical school for each scholarship recipient. We plan to raise $2 million to award the first scholarship, with our ultimate fundraising goal of $5 million to award three scholarships: one scholarship for a student at each of the three medical schools in Washington state.

The success of this effort depends upon your generosity. Demonstrate your commitment to diversity and equity by donating today!

If you have any questions, please contact Amy Fredericks, WSMA’s Finance Director, at 206-441-9762 or amy@wsma.org.
