SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM
|
Donate to
AAOGF
As we enter into a new
calendar year, I am reminded of our need to sustain
support of the truly excellent programs of our
foundation, the AAOGF. Through the generosity of our
predecessors, our colleagues, and many of you in AGOS,
the Foundation has successfully weathered turbulent
financial times and our programs continue to thrive.
-
Over the past several
years, AAOGF support of the AGOS Scientific Meeting
has enabled the Society to reach a steady,
self-supporting state without extra member
assessments or increases in fees.
-
With the generous
support of our partners ABOG and SMFM, we have
increased the length of our mentored research
training grants to three years and increased the
size of the annual award to $120,000/year. A growing
number of leaders in our field are former AAOGF
Scholars!
-
Our travel awards
provide opportunity for young academic faculty to
attend an AGOS meeting and to be introduced to our
organization. I believe that participation of the
next generation of leaders in our field makes our
meeting all the more exciting.
-
Our bridge grant
program facilitates the work of young physician
scientists in ObGyn departments as they transition
from mentored research training to become
independent investigators. This year the program
will expand to include support of established
investigators who experience a temporary lapse grant
support. The growing need for bridge grants is
evident from the response to our request for
proposals.
We should all be
justifiably proud of the accomplishments of our
Foundation in promoting scholarly work in our field and
in supporting the future of AGOS!
Please consider making a gift to the AAOGF. That gift
will help move our specialty forward.
Your gift to AAOGF is also a great way to honor a mentor
or colleague. I hope that you will continue to keep
AAOGF among the organizations that you support annually
and that you will consider increasing the size of your
tax deductible gift this year.
