“I want our medical students to focus on their studies, not their finances. Scholarships make that possible.” |

To show her profound commitment to professional and graduate student support, U-M President Mary Sue Coleman recently committed $20 million from President’s Office discretionary funds to provide a 1-to-2 match for scholarship gifts made between September 1, 2007, and December 31, 2008 (or until the matching funds are committed).
The President’s Challenge offers a unique opportunity to maximize the impact of your scholarship gift: Every $2 pledged will be matched by $1 from the President’s Office. Gifts of any amount are eligible for the match.
To learn more about these limited-time giving opportunities, or to make a gift in support of medical students at Michigan, contact B.J. Bess at (734) 998-6044 or bjbess@umich.edu.
