Their Future, Your Legacy You can join us in supporting our students
Your generosity can impact lives of Gators and the lives of the countless patients our students will care for. Your gift supporting scholarships helps the best students obtain the world-class education they need and deserve.
Ways to Participate
Establish an Endowed Scholarship Create a new named scholarship with a gift of $100,000 or more, one of the most meaningful and enduring ways to support the UF College of Medicine. Endowed scholarships can be either need- or merit-based and are critical to the College of Medicine because they generate predictable (4% annually), growing streams of income in perpetuity.
Support a Future Gator Doc Opened in 2024, the Medical Alumni Legacy Endowment Fund was created thanks to the generosity of many UF College of Medicine alumni who have given through class reunion programming. This fund allows the College of Medicine to award funds to deserving students more quickly, greatly boosting our ability to recruit the best future Gator Docs across the country and world. It also gives our alumni more opportunities to meet the students they support.
Support a Future Gator PA Make a gift in support of physician assistant student scholarships to help create a lasting source of funding to meet the needs of students who might not otherwise make it to our door and to reward current students for academic excellence and achievement.
Support a Future Gator PhD Make a gift to graduate student scholarships to help them establish themselves in the field of their passion and to support travel grants to attend scientific meetings, scholarships to help with educational expenses, awards for outstanding scholarly achievements and assistance in preventing financial barriers.
Plan for Your Future and Help UF College of Medicine Students Include the College of Medicine in your estate plans or consider a planned gift. We can work with you, your family and your advisers to help you create a plan that meets both your financial and charitable goals.
