'70 for 70' Club to Benefit Foundation
We applaud the 70 members who have led the Mississippi Academy of Family Physicians over the 70 years we have grown as an Academy. Each of them has taken on the responsibility of leading the state’s largest medical specialty association while also managing the duties of a busy medical practice.
Family physicians gathered in May 1949 for the first-ever banquet, held in Biloxi. This event followed the Academy’s founding in February 1949.

The ‘70 for 70’ Club is a program we have established to help celebrate our milestone anniversary, remember our outstanding leaders and help build our Foundation. Help us honor one (or several) of these outstanding physicians by giving a donation to the MAFP Foundation in their name.
Here’s how it works: MAFP members are invited to donate $70 to the MAFP Foundation in honor of one or more of the70 presidents of the MAFP, listed below. It takes a minimum of $70 to honor one past president, and donations in multiples of $70 to honor more than one past president. (For example, you may wish to give $140, and using the numbers below, you may specify that $70 of your donation is in honor of president #1, Dr. Kety, and another $70 is in honor of #70, Dr. Wheat.)
All donations will benefit MAFP Foundation’s scholarship and educational programs. Please send your donations to:
MAFP Foundation
755 Avignon Drive
Ridgeland MS 39157
Donors will be recognized by name in the next issue of this journal, in the newsletter and other Academy materials. Act now to honor the past president of your choice!
