Expressing Gratitude to the 2021 Annual Alliance and Legacy Society Donors

Thank You to Our Enduring Donors!

Enduring Donors

This year, as part of a newly developed plan to strengthen and diversify the financial support necessary to elevate research and education grants funding, we established a new level of the Annual Alliance known as the Enduring Donor level, and our Major Gifts Committee have been visiting with longtime supporters about this new opportunity to champion research. Our donors are answering the call to increase their own personal support by signing on as Enduring Donors. Together with the strength of our endowment — and our entire cadre of Annual Alliance Donors — our Enduring Donors are positioning us to make the biggest leap forward in research funding in our foundation’s history.

We are grateful to the following Enduring Donors who are leading the way to a stronger specialty through their generous giving.

Michelle Blanda, MD Gail D'Onofrio, MD and Robert Galvin James F. Holmes, Jr., MD, MPH

James J. McCarthy, MD Megan N. Schagrin, MBA, CAE, CFRE Joseph Adrian Tyndall, MD, MPH

Gregory A. Volturo, MD

Richard E. Wolfe, MD In memory of Peter Rosen, MD

Brian J. Zink, MD In memory of Audrey Zink

Please join us in saluting the generosity and visionary spirit of philanthropy of our Annual Alliance Donors!

On behalf of the SAEMF Board and our grantees, we extend gratitude to our Sustaining Donors who have made a significant gift to ensure more and larger grants are possible in the future.

In addition to all of our Annual Alliance donors, we’re especially grateful to have the support of the Annual Alliance’s Advocate Donors, many of whom have stepped up this year to increase their commitment given the critical need articulated in the 2021 SAEM Foundation Donor Guide. Can we count on you to become an ally for EM research? Donate Today!

SAEMF Legacy Society Founding Donors: Strengthening EM’s Future Through Philanthropy Today

Another visionary group of SAEM members, our Legacy Society Founding Donors, have each made the decision to ensure that the work of this organization, which they helped build and which has made such an impact on their own professional lives, continues well into the future. Stay tuned to SAEM Pulse for future updates from our Founding Donors who will share a bit more about the “whys” and “hows” of their planned gifts. It may be easier than you think to make this gift. And, if you’ve already made similar plans, please let us know so that we may honor you as a Legacy Society donor. Contact Julie Wolfe at jwolfe@saem.org.
