Help Support the AMA Alliance Grassroots Honor Fund
and honor the memory of John Lovin | The AMA Alliance Grassroots Honor Fund has recently been established as a unique and permanently endowed Alliance scholarship in support of future generations of medical students. It has also been announced by the AMA Foundation that once the fund is endowed, the first scholarship awarded will be in memory of John Lovin.
The NCMS Alliance is asking our members to come together to support this effort. John Lovin was a wonderful friend and dedicated member of the Alliance for more than twenty years serving in many county, state and national leadership positions. He served as the NCMS Alliance President from 1998-1999 and on the national level as the AMA Alliance Treasurer in 2009 when he suddenly passed away.
The scholarship awarded will reflect John’s determination to speak up for those without a voice of their own including women and children affected by domestic violence. The scholarship given in memory of John Lovin will go to a medical student with a commitment to women’s and/or children’s health through volunteer activities or research initiatives. The Grassroots Honor Fund has currently surpassed the $150,000 mark towards its $250,000 goal. Our goal here in North Carolina is to reach $10,000 to participate as a Charter Donor for the fund. We hope you will choose to join us in supporting this worthwhile project.
Please join us in making a donation to the AMA Alliance Grassroots Honor Fund. Your donation in memory of John Lovin may be sent to NCMS Alliance, P.O. Box 27167, Raleigh, NC 27611 by October 30, 2011. Please make your check payable to the NCMS Alliance so it may be included in our state donation and include “Honor Fund” in the memo section.Honor Fund Donation Form |
