Ways of Giving

Karandeep is a second-year medical student who feels that the many unique resources and opportunities offered at U of M are unrivaled, giving him the well-rounded education and experience he needs to be the best.

Since its earliest days as a leading academic research institution, the University of Michigan’s role in advancing medicine in America has been strengthened by the support of friends of medicine at Michigan who share an abiding interest in our mission: to deliver an exceptional standard of patient care, to advance biomedical research frontiers, to train the next generation of physician and scientist leaders for our nation, to develop innovative technologies in the service of medicine.

This folder of information provides answers to questions frequently asked by those who share our dedication to saving lives, to curing disease, to improving the quality of life for all of us through all the years of our lives. Every gift to advance medicine at Michigan helps to ensure our continued excellence in medical education, in medical research, in patient care, in technological innovation. Every gift helps define the critical margin of excellence that sets Michigan apart, that provides us with the ability to recruit and retain people of dedication, of compassion, of creativity and determination, at every level of the institution’s work.

I hope that the information included here will help you discover ways that you can be a part of medicine’s long tradition of private support at the University of Michigan. Such gifts are a wonderful way to express appreciation for Michigan’s past contributions to medicine and to participate in our shared vision of the promise that lies ahead.
