All In for Students Campaign Raises Funds For Scholarships
The All In For Students Campaign raises scholarship funds for students at the University of Arizona College of Medicine – Phoenix. Last year, faculty and staff from the college donated enough money to award scholarships to 10 aspiring physicians. This year, the goal is to provide 15 scholarships.
First-year student Diep Nguyen, who received a scholarship from last year’s campaign, said he was honored and grateful to receive an award.
“Each day I tell myself how fortunate I am to be at a school where everyone truly wants you to succeed. The generosity is alleviating the financial cost of my education, which allows me to better focus my energy and resources toward becoming a good physician.”
In addition to asking for support from faculty and staff, this year’s campaign hopes to reach donors from outside the college.
All gifts, large and small, will make a difference. Giving is easy. Make an online gift or for University of Arizona employees, download a form to give via payroll deduction or check (PDF).
For more information, please contact Jeanette Gemoll, 602-827-2011.
